Hello!
I hope someone in here is savvy with this and can help me, because i am at a loss. Having big trouble with Displaylink and the MPC Touch
I got an MPC Touch the other day. Everything installs ok, but when it comes to the 'Configure the screen' step of the installation, Displaylink seems to be unable to detect the unit. When i power the unit on, i can see it works, it shows the AKAI logo perfectly, then turns off. When i start the 'Configure the screen' wizard, i can hear the USB sound and the screen flashes blank for a second, then nothing for the 120 seconds. If i look at the Displaylink icon in the tray, it says no compatible devices are connected.
Everything else seems to be working perfectly. The audio driver works, the inputs and outputs too, and if i lie to the wizard and tell it that everything is OK, i can control MPC Software 2 with the unit, but the screen remains off.
I'm running Windows 8.1, i74770 and im way above all requirements. Also, i have an M-Audio Mobile Pre installed, but i have also tried uninstalling it and repeating the whole process to see if that was the cause somehow. I have also tried a clean installation of the old version of the software package available in Akaipro, MPC 1.9.6.1, which comes with an older Displaylink, but that also didn't work. Also, i'm using the Displaylink scrubber between installations, and CCleaner to fix registry issues. But i can't make this work
From what i've seen on the internet, this seems to be a very common problem with the Displaylink drivers, and i haven't been able to find any fix that works for me.
So, can anybody please help me? The unit seems ok, it is a drivers problem with my system, but there seems to be no fix for it Please help, i'm thinking of returning it but it is such a let down, i wasn't expecting this from Akai
Thanks in advance for any help!
Cheers!
