Style: USB 2.0 to VGA (DL Certified)Verified Purchase
This thing works as designed! I am an IT person that has been working from home for a long time. I use a laptop when on the road and have used a second monitor attached to my laptop for years when I'm in my home office. I bought a new monitor a couple of months ago and I figured I would hook up the new monitor up as a 3rd monitor. I researched different tools and this one had good reviews so I gave it a try. Flawless installation and has worked perfectly since I got it. I liked it so much I ended up buying another identical monitor to the new one I had purchased so the resolutions match. Awesome tool and would recommend if you work from home or just need multiple monitors. These are connected to my docking station and the monitors fire up when I attach my laptop to the docking station.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works better than expected
Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2013
Style: USB 2.0 to DVI (DL Certified)Verified Purchase
Its not perfect but I wasn't expecting perfection. I had researched this kind of adapter fairly well prior to purchasing it. My goal was to add a third monitor to my 2011 MacBookPro. From my research I understood their would be some limitations. The only issue I have found so far is that there is some flickering when certain things are displayed. For example, when I open a new tab in Safari and it displays my top sites, that part of the Safari window flickers. Since I don't stay there long it doesn't matter.

My setup is the 2011 MacBookPro (17") with an Asus HDMI 24" LCD attached to the Thunderbolt port plus and an old ViewSonic 19" LCD (1440x900) attached via the StarTech USB to DVI adapter. The ViewSonic LCD is hanging on a Vertical Dual monitor stand from easymounlcd.com. At some point I plan to replace the ViewSonic display with a higher resolution 24" one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great with MacBook Pro (mid-2010) with El Capitan
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2016
Style: USB 2.0 to DVI (DL Certified)Verified Purchase
The device works exactly as desired with a MacBook Pro mid-2010 running El Capitan. I downloaded and installed the latest driver (v2.5) from the DisplayLink web site, connected my second monitor and plugged in the adapter (directly to the laptop USB 2.0 port, not through a USB hub). The monitor responded with the matching resolution to my existing left hand monitor and correctly as the right-hand monitor in the configuration. When the laptop comes up out of sleep mode, the adapter's monitor resumes about 5-10 seconds after the mini-DisplayPort monitor, well within my expectations. I use the right hand (USB) monitor for web development and testing, so it's plenty responsive for my needs.

Style: USB 2.0 to DVI (DL Certified)Verified Purchase
I purchased this to allow my early 2011 MacBook Pro 15" to have a second external screen. It was fairly easy to install and I do get a second monitor online using it which was my goal. My only complaint about it, and I was expecting as much, is that the pointer movement can be less than smooth at times on it when moving the mouse around, it seems to have some minor color distortions with transparency on the toolbars, and of course, video can get a little bit jumpy. But overall it does the job and I didn't have to buy two thunderbolt monitors to get my external displays which means this saved me a lot of money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Product works, just NOT for 2011 MBP

I bought this product so I could have a second monitor extended with my 2011 macbook pro (with the first monitor plugged into the displayport). The provided software disk is useless, since the drivers are so only they only apply to 10.8 macos, but I was able to find the proper ones for 10.13 on displaylinks website. Here's the thing though, 10.13 is the latest OS that you can install on a 2011 macbook pro, and 10.13 does NOT work for this product. The display lights up having recognized the input, but the laptop does not recognize the the monitor as an output and so the screen stays black. After trying multiple installations of the driver and different monitor / cable / etc, I finally found the relevant article on displaylinks software download page that states that 10.13 macos is not supported for this product.

I have contacted both Amazon, startech and Display port about the short comings of this unit. I obtained all of there recommended drivers, and firmware to try and get things to work.

It worked perfectly in a 2007 winXP Pro 32 bit box using a PCI card. The primary use that I needed it for was trying to "display" some files off a DELL M6600 precision, Win7 Pro 64 bit, which uses a M8900 AMD card for all video duties that blacked out. The non install of drivers failed to installed because of the Dell specific firmware, and trying to disassemble the complete laptop to isolate the vid card proved unfruitful. I ended up buying a replacement $300 ebay special M6600 as a work around, reinstalling AUTOCAD 3D onto the "newer" laptop
Not giving up, I then tried this unit on a crommell micro pc running win&Pro 64 bit on a dual atom processor. As To be expected, not enough horsepower but I had better luck connecting the PC to the VGA port on my monitor than what i did for the DELL

I was looking for a video card that wouldn't cut out on my PC. I'm replacing one that currently does. This works as I expected and hoped. I've been working with this for a few months and I am completely satisfied!

Great little gadget. I have used this to set up an additional monitor connected to my laptop. Plug and play with Windows 10, no driver install required.

It was one of my best shopping at Amazon.ca. Finally I have 2 monitors connected to my MacBook. Once I close the MacBook the screen is getting shrunk and I get 2 black spots on top and bottom of my screen on the monitor connected to Startech.
That’s the only concern I have. But I am happy and leave my MacBook open. I’ll have 3 monitors!!!

P.S. After a week I started to have a problem
with my MacBook. The screen started to glitch. It was my MacBook, not Startech. I had to return it. Again this is a very nice product and I was happy with it.
