  1. USB to VGA adapter not working properly


    So i recently bought a USB to VGA adapter to get a 2 monitor setup with my gaming laptop, after i installed the driver the adapter wouldn't work the screen was off and windows made the disconnect and connect sound over and over. After trying a few solutions from this thread https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/msusb-video-usb-hdmi-adapter/116f8b5a-5d2d-44fd-884b-a12aca9f26d4?page=4&auth=1 i still haven't gotten it to work.

    Universal Adapter not working with VGA Switcher

    I purchased a VGA switcher from monoprice and i received an AC adapter which is 120V and now i'm in the Middle east and the Universal adapter i purchased turns the Vga switcher on but the screen is black but when i use the original adapter with a step down transformer it works great.

    P.S i cant use the original adapter without a step down transformer in the middle east because here its 240V not 120V plugging the adapter would burn it.

    Any tips? Thanks in advance. PHOTOS OF EACH:

    Startech Announces New USB to VGA and USB to DVI Adapters

    StarTech.com, a leading manufacturer of hard-to-find connectivity parts has announced the release of the (SKU: USB2VGAE3) USB to VGA Adapter and the (SKU: USB2DVIE3) USB to DVI Adapter which support high resolutions (1920x1200) and are optimized for web browsing and office application performance.

    The new adapters have been added to StarTech.com’s extensive line of USB Video Adapters, which enable users to add dual display or multi-monitor capability to a desktop or laptop computer through USB, eliminating the need to open the computer case in order to install a secondary or specialized (multi-head) video card.

The new adapters are easy to install, and do not require users to take apart their system which could void the computer manufacturers’ warranties.”

    Features and benefits of the new USB video adapters include:
    • Supports resolutions up to 1920x1200
    • Suitable for both desktop and laptop computers (require USB connection)
    • Powered through host USB connection; no power adapter required
    • Small form factor design ensures maximum portability
    • Simple installation, making it easy to add secondary or multiple monitors to a computer system
    • USB2DVIE3 includes a DVI to VGA adapter, enabling use as either a USB to DVI or USB to VGA adapter
    The USB to VGA (USB2VGAE3) and USB to DVI (USB2DVIE3) video adapters are slated as eventual replacements for two of StarTech.com’s earlier releases from their lineup of USB Video adapters, the USB2VGA and USB2VGA2.

    The USB2DVIE3 is available for purchase from leading technology resellers including ebuyer.com, Insight, Amazon, box.co.uk and Dabs.com and is distributed by Ingram Micro, EntaTech and Micro-P. RRP for the USB to VGA Adapter is £69.99 and RRP for the USB to DVI Adapter is £71.99 the UK.

    USB to VGA adapter not working properly

    USB-to-VGA and USB-to-DVI adapters working not together


    Hi!
    I'm using my PC with 3 desktops.
    2 desktops are connected to nVidia GeForce 210 by DVI and HDMI.
    I had connected one desktop by USB-to-VGA adapter by Manhattan - this desktop had max.resolution 1600x1200.
    I changed display to 24" 1920x1200 display and adapter written above supports max. widescreen 1680x1050, so I bought new one.
    I connected new USB-to-DVI adapter by DisplayLink to display and it works.
    Everybody knows that these adapters can be connected up to 6 to one computer, so I wanted to use 4th desktop.
    I could do mirroring of nVidia, but when I tried mirroring long time ago, resolution was limited by the lower LCD resolution - so, it affected new display (if was this changed, let me know please).
    So, I connected USB-to-VGA again to computer and to old 1600x1200 LCD, but problem - works not. LCD is found but no one option is available and checked is turned off LCD. I look into device manager and found problem - here are results:
    New USB2DVI
    USB Display Adapters category
    --------------------------------------
    Device: USB3.0 to DVI Adapter
    Manufacturer: Display Link
    Status:
    Device working properly

    Old USB2VGA
    Display Adapters category
    -------------------------------
    Device: Trigger USB Graphics Chipset Family (1P-E)* / (1P-M)*
    Manufacturer: Magic Control Technology Corp.
    Status:
    Windows cannot initialize this hardware driver (Code 37)
    A device which does not exist was specified.

    *1P-E and 1P-M are devices with same status and values in device manager separately

    Can anybody explain me why it works not and how to solve it?
    For correction: OS - Windows 10.1511 Pro x64

    Thank you for all.
