This USB Display Adapter enables you to connect one more monitor, LCD or projector to a computer with a USB 2.0 port. For desktop users adding an extra monitor via USB connection is easier than ever without having to open the computer chassis to install an internal video card. Once the installation is done, the USB-attached monitor soon wakes up. No function key hassle to swap a second monitor.
With this handy adapter, you can enjoy many benefits brought by an add-on monitor. The most obvious one is that you get more desktop area to have more applications visible at one time. For example, you may work on one monitor while your family watching video on the other. No more stacking windows within the confines of a single display. Or you may span an application, e.g. spreadsheets, across two sides of displays. What's more, the adapter is hot pluggable. If you are not using the extra monitor, just unplug the adapter at any time; no reboot needed.
Pros: None.
Cons: Was unable to get this to work on Windows 7 SP1. Everytime when trying to connect the 2nd monitor the screen flickers like it is supposed to and then the laptop blue screens. I uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times with no luck. I tried this on a couple different Lenovo T430s laptops and got the same results on both. I do have other laptops within my team with the StarTech converters and have had no problems at all. I only went with this one due to it being half the cost of the StarTech. Guess you get what you pay for.
