Graphics performance degrades when using this driver...

Hi Steven.

I have analysed your issue and it appears that whilst using the benchmarking app and some games, the frame rate reduces to an unnaceptable level. I have a fix which will be made available in a future release. In the meantime, please consider emailing the Windows 7 beta email address (win7beta@displaylink.com) with your problem, as we would like to verify the fix.

Best Regards,
Martin.

Martin, Can you clarify your request? Do you want me to send an email to the beta address essentially restating my original post? I'm not sure I understand....

Hi,
I have the same Issue.
It happens, when playing Call of Duty 5.
I have 1 GraphicCard (ATI Radeon HD 4850) with 2 Monitors (24" 1920x1200, 22" 1680x1050). ATI-Drivers 9.8.
I tried to minimize the Details but it didn't help. After uninstalling Displaylink-Drivers (Beta1) it runs on highest settings.

same problem here with a ATI HD3870 and latest drivers (9.8) and as soon as i uninstall the displaylink-drivers its back to normal

Same problem again, but more extreme - I get the refresh problem showing up in in IE as well.

Versions:
Windows 7 Enterprise 6.1 build 7600
Video: NVidea GeForce 8800M GTX
Driver: 8:15:11:8585

Great shame, 'cos it's a great product. I would love to know when the issue is fixed.

Yes, thats right...
I Need a thrid Port for connecting my TV to my PC, but until there are those kinds of Problems, I just can wait until the drivers are grown up.
So, at the Moment I have to test with my small 9" screen, if new drivers are better.

I am also experiencing degraded performance with Unreal Tournament 3 and the latest Catalyst 9.9 drivers. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 6.1 (Build 7600). My primary display is a Dell 2407WFP and the secondary display is a nanovision Mimo. My graphics card is a XFX Radeon HD 4890.

Let me know if I can be of assistance in testing any new versions.

Same problem with Beta2 drivers.
Another game with that problem is Empire Earth 2
