I agree DisplayLink powered set-up is very unreliable, adding 20 minutes to my morning work stream most days.

When booted up in-place (lap to in docking station, not having been moved since last use), success rate is about 75%. When booted up following laptop being booted up outside the docking station (e.g., on the road, etc.), success rate under 10%. Success defined as both monitors (one powered by DisplayLink exterenal DVI card) work.

At the minimum, I have to unplug and then re-plug the DVI card. This works 50% of the time. The renmaining 50%, I have to uninstall and reinstall the software. That kinda sucks.

The DisplayLink icon does not appear in the task tray, and frequently when it loads, I get a message that USB device is not recognized. This really sucks.

I'm no computer wizard, but it looks to me like there is a persistence problem.

I have sent in via the Tools, all the info DispalyLink could possibly want.

I see several other posts with similar problems. Why does DisaplyLink choose not to fix this, or at least respond to the posts?
