2nd Startech External Video Card Stops AMD Driver (Win 8.1)

Hi,

I am running Windows 8.1 on a Toshiba Satellite S855-01L. I have 2 Startech external video cards. The Startech USB32HDE works no problem. (I installed it under 8.0) However, when I try and install Startech USB32HDDVII in 8.1 and the related DisplayLink, driver things go mad. All screens blackout. On reboot, and on examination of Device Manager, I see the message that Windows has stopped the AMD Radeon HD 7670M driver. Only my laptop screen works. The monitor connected to Startech USB32HDE that was working before does not anymore. Uninstalling the Displaylink driver does no good to get back to status quo. I have to do a system restore.
