3 external VGA monitors via USB ports on HP Notebook

Quote from Bernard111:

Do you mean the Asus VW223B monitors? I know they do not run daisy-chained under Vista x64 or other 64 bit OSes.

Any other idea? :eek:

maybe look at the Samsung LD190G 18.5" or LD220G 21.5" Lapfit Monitors. they have the new usb decoder chipset in them, and they are said to work with Win 98 / ME / 2K / XP / X64 / Vista. They are built to squat next to laptop.

Hi AlmostGotIt

I'd be very interested in hearing more about your setup. Are your monitors connected to a laptop or desktop, what are your specs in terms of graphics card, processor, ram ?

Thanks

six usb monitors run fine with no noticeable slow down at all on my 2.4GHz dual core, 3.5GB ram, XP. My video card is a geforce 7500le but my usb monitors dont use it.

X64?!

Which OS is it? XP64 or Vista X64? :confused:

I can't find a link of the manual for one of those monitors.

Also decompressing the 56K driver 1.0... there is no ReadMe or other information about OS compatibility... :eek:

Vista 64 is supported, but you have to have service pack 1 installed.

it would be interesting...

but could you please tell me where to find information about Vista x64 support for the Samsung LD220G?

The Samsung US site does not provide information for this model while the Quick User Guide and the Manual @ Canadian web site do not specify the support for Vista x64 under the 'Installation Requirements', just a generic 'Windows Vista'.
 
I don’t know where to find it for that specific model, but it’s a display link enabled monitor. Samsung only makes the casing and the screen, they license the software driver and the hardware that decodes the usb signal from displaylink, so you can defer directly to displaylink for supported operating systems. Im sure it’s the same across any displaylink enabled device.
