Win7-32bit upgrade.

smehta — Tue, 12 Jul 2011 10:23:59 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade my WinVista-32bit to Win7-32bit and have come with the following message at upgrade-installation: ** Uninstall - DisplayLink Core software v4.3 to 4.5 **.

In the Add/Remove programs the driveris listed as ** DisplayLink Core Software DisplayLink Corp 107mb **.

!) Is it OK to remove this driver in order to proceed with the installation of Win7-32bit?

2) After removal of the driver and installation how do I reinstall the driver on Win7-32bit?

All replies/suggestions appreciated.

Do you connect external monitors by USB? Or do you use a USB Docking Station with a video output? A SONY VGP-UPR1 perhaps?

I believe you do not need these drivers when using Windows 7 as they are built into the new OS but presumably you have an installation disc for the SONY VGP-UPR1 and can reinstall from this if needed.

If you do not have a USB graphics output it is not it is unlikely that you need this application.

I don't have a USB monitor or a Sony Docking station.And I assume Sony VGP-UPR1 is for the docking station.

In order to proceed with the upgrade it is safe to remove this driver and just go ahead with the installation of Win7-32bit upgd.

Thanks for your reply,

Yes, I would go ahead and uninstall it.

You have to do this to install Windows 7. If you have a problem uninstalling, try it in Safe Mode. Come back if you have problems as some of the older versions of this software are difficult to uninstall.
