Toshiba Dynadock, Qosmio, latest drivers upgrade --> black display - Page 2

I have a similar issue here:
http://www.displaylink.org/forum/sho...9&postcount=10

This other thread looks to be the same issue:
http://www.displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=62267

Seems like the commonality is NVIDIA drivers with the 7.4 M2 software. For me, 7.4 M0 still works (under Windows 8.1) as expected -- link here: http://displaylink.com/support/sla.php?fileid=98 This is a temporary workaround until DisplayLink sorts out their NVIDIA bug...

How would one disable the GPU in BIOS?

My machine has had windows 8 shipped on it. I used the UEFI method of getting to the BIOS screen, but there were no options there to make any changes to the display or video cards.

Hi,

Thanks for trying - I've checked and this looks like another issue that is fixed in the next release due out in the first half of December.

Thanks,
James

I really am quite hampered by this issue.

If they are fixing an issue that will be released the beginning of December why on earth can't they fix this issue?

You are not alone in having to deal with this issue

Hi,

My previous point was that the issue which has been fixed is identical to this issue so I expect this issue to be fixed as well.

Thanks,
James

Sorry I guess I missed the point. I guess it will be a wait & see. If it does resolve the problem I guess I will download the update & then 8.1

I attempted to go backwards as suggested by luiset83. I was able to do so, but the situation has persisted.

Will the members of this thread be notified when this "fix" is available?

jborland · 12-06-2013, 04:42 PM

I happened to see that V7.5M0 was available this morning. I downloaded and installed it. Nothing

So, then I uninstalled, ran the "cleaner", and reinstalled (rebooting in between every step).

Nothing.
