Default BSOD when changing windows

Purchased one of these USB gizmos after seeing them being used (successfully) by other members of my local Flight Sim Group...

Installed OK after downloading the latest driver from your site (DisplayLink-6.3MO.exe; file version 6.3.38392.0).

I am using a new Acer Aspire i7 laptop with W7-64bit, 6Gb RAM, nVidia GT540M/1Gb graphics - this screen for displaying cockpit instruments...

A 19" monitor attached to the laptop video-out 15-pin socket - for displaying Flight Simulator FSX scenery...

A 17" monitor attached to the USB DisplayLink adapter - for displaying moving map...

Everything set up through W7 preferences - so far, so good.

When changing anything on the 19" monitor/window the entire system falls to BSOD and then shuts down

Any suggestions, please
Is there an established protocol for activating/opening the screens

Default Sorted?

Issue resolved (?) ......

Discovered that if I get everything set up and ready to go - THEN - hot-plug the USB device the "USB-screen" stays active

But I don't think it should be like this......

Whatever...

It shouldn't BSOD like that. Can you post the logs with the blue screen dmp files so we can see what the cause is:

Erm...

Tell me where they are (?) and I will copy and send to you - the laptop is not connected to the internet and I will need to send from "this" PC....

The dmp files are in c:\windows\minidump\*.dmp

The other useful file will be the system details.txt, which is created by the debug tool.
