Does this use DisplayLink or does it have proprietary software that needs to be installed on every pc separately?

I had to use the software but the program crashed my pc and my laptop. Laptop had to be sent to factory. It destroyed the OS.

From what I can tell, they're both dual. However, you must use a physical switch on the card to turn dual link on and it will disable the displayports.::EDIT:: I was incorrect, their website is a little vague. It has only ONE DVI Dual Link and it must be activated via switch and will disable ONE displayport.Source - http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/03/11/asus_hd_7970_directcu_ii_video_card_review/#.UjAh8cakr_8

WIN 7 Drivers at http://www.displaylink.com/support/downloads.php This is actually a Displaylink product.

I honestly cannot remember if it came with software. I just plugged it in and it was auto recognized by my Dell XP system. I have since purchased an all in one and gave the monitor to my mom and we did the same thing. Hope it helps.

If by "upgrades" you mean installing drivers, then no, you will need to install the DisplayLink drivers to use the monitor. If by "drag and drop from screen to screen" you mean setting up an extended desktop, then yes that is supported by the DisplayLink drivers.

Julie ~the display device reads directly from your armband. You will still need to plug your armband in and sync it with your computer. Let me know if that doesn't answer your question, I wasn't sure what you meant by "replace the software that goes with the monitor"?

As found here: http://displaylink.com/support/downloads.php no it currently does not yet.

it uses standard DVI connector in the back of the monitor (the white one). Your DVI computer port must be compatible.

No software required, the customer will need to have the HDMI output on their PC/ laptop to connect, you could also have a VGA to HDMI converter to connect to any computer that does not have the HDMI output and use this Wireless HDMI Transmitter & Receiver to connect to the monitor/ screen/ TV =)

yes just google display link drivers you will get to the displaylink website. Im running one on a mac book 13in retina. its great because its portable and i throw my iMessage email and voip soft phone on it when i setup on a table for a long work session. does not take to much battery power i would say a 15-20% overall hit but i have not let it run all the way down on battery only with monitor connected.

Probably best to check out the displaylink website and see if drivers are posted for the video port.

I heard this model uses a displaylink DL-3k series chip and Linux support for only DL-1x5 which is older generation chip is currently available per displaylink website. So even there are some success stories with other usb monitors on linux, that wouldn't apply for this.

It acts as a fully functional standalone video adapter. It can mirror or extend your desktop. My laptop runs its internal display and one external monitor from it's internal graphics chip (Intel HD 4000) and drives a second external monitor from the VisionTek. All three displays run independently.

No. I don´t need to use additional software. My two monitors are plug and play and works very well with my toshiba docking station.

This device does not require a software driver to work, so it will work with any device that supplies it with a VGA signal no matter what operating system is used. The only thing to be mindful of is that VGA source signal is within the range of the supported resolutions of this converter.

Yes. Display link recently released drivers for the Mac. Instead of installing the drivers on the cd, install the drivers from http://displaylink.com/support/mac_downloads.php. I use my adapter on my 2011 MacBook Pro and it works great.
