REQUENTLY SKED UESTIONS Why can’t I install .NET? You may have an older version of .NET, preventing the newer one from being installed. Using Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features on the Control Panel, uninstall any version of Microsoft .NET Framework™ older than version 3.0. Then install Microsoft .NET Framework™ from the Wireless USB to VGA with Integrated Audio Kit installer.
Page 29
REQUENTLY SKED UESTIONS Still not connected? Try adjusting the resolution from the DisplayLink Manager. Some displays such as television type displays can be recognized as a default monitor and therefore your PC may set it as a default 1280x1024 which can be too high for the monitor. If your monitor is not capable of displaying that resolution, you will need to lower the setting.

REQUENTLY SKED UESTIONS I see a blue screen or my desktop background on my display connected with the Wireless USB to VGA with Integrated Audio Kit, but no icons. Is something wrong with my unit? No, your unit is working properly. The default setting of this device will extend your desktop on the additional display.

REQUENTLY SKED UESTIONS I am trying to play back a DVD on my extended display, but am getting no picture. Playback of protected content is not supported by this product, which means some DVD players and all Blu-ray players will not display video when connected through your display. My Wireless USB Host Adapter is plugged into my computer but I do not hear anything out of my speakers when connected through the Wireless VGA with Integrated Audio Adapter.
IDEO LAYBACK We only recommend playing back video in “Extend” mode. Don’t switch between “Mirror” and “Extended” modes while video is being played on the wireless display. Doing this can confuse the video player which may cause it to stop its playback. We recommend stopping playback, and then switching viewing modes if needed.
