Default Win8 RP - New driver 7.0b1 not working correctly with 3 monitors

Hi

My configuration is laptop with 1600*900 + 2 HD monitors where one of them works through i-tec Display Adapter via HDMI cable.

If I'm using just two HD monitors (one over usb display card) everything works fine or if laptop and directly connected HD monitor are in duplicate mode and second hd via usb in extend mode also works.

But if one primary and other two in extend mode I can see first failing image segments (like puzzled image) and then black screen. So simple all three together not works. Once I also got bsod error (attached).

Just small note. With debugging enabled third monitor works, but cursor was visible only on monitor attached to usb display card and hidden on all other monitors. Anyway experience was really strange during attaching new monitor.

Thanks, I passed your logs for analysis to a development team. Meanwhile, could you check if the situation improves if you install drivers from nvidia.com? (logs indicate that you only use inbox driver from Windows 8 for your NVIDIA GPU)

Default v7 beta on Win8 doesn't work with 3 monitors

I've also been unable to get the displaylink software to work with three monitors. When three monitors are active, all screens go blank and i'm forced to restart. It will work with just my laptop and one external display or just my docking station external monitor and my display link external display but not all three.

I have attached the support files requested to hopefully help with debugging as I've been without my 3rd monitor for several months now due to incompatibility between display link and Win8.

I would be great to see if you have the same problems with Win8 RTM build, when it's available for you. There were issues which MS/NVIDIA addressed in it, they had been a cause for few incompatibilities with DisplayLink.

EDIT: We have confirmed this issue is fixed already, so the final release of 7.0 and Win8 RTM should be working fine. Thanks for the report.
