Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)  
Q: I am unable to make the USB to DVI Adapter the primary display!  
A: Some video cards ship their product with a utility that prevents other video cards from being  
set as the primary card. Check the bottom right hand corner taskbar for this utility and disable it  
before switching the USB to DVI-I Adapter to the primary display.  
Q: Why won’t my DVD player work when I move it over to the extended display?  
A: Some DVD playback software packages do not support playing on a second display adapter  
of any kind.  
Q: How come my video will not play on Media Player if I move it over to the extended desktop?  
A: Check that you have moved the Media Player window completely over to the second screen.  
Q: Why does my mouse not move to the right side of the screen as it should on the extended  
desktop?  
A: Check the Display Settings (page 6) and make sure that your display number ‘2’ is on the  
right side of display number ‘1’. You can rearrange how Windows treats each display in relation  
to each other in the Display Properties Settings.  
Q: There are lines running horizontally up and down my screen.  
A: This is due to a low refresh rate setting. You can change this setting by going to the Display  
Settings (Page 6) and then selecting Advanced and then the Monitor tab. Make sure you  
select the USB 2.0 Graphics Device-1 first and set the refresh rate no higher than your monitor  
can support as this may damage your monitor. You can also try to reset/refresh/resynchronize  
your monitor.  
Q: Why won’t the Adapter work on Windows Vista 64 bit version?  
A: Currently, the driver is compatible with Windows Vista 32 bit version only. Please check the  
LINDY website for any driver updates.

WEEE (Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment),  
Recycling of Electronic Products  
United Kingdom  
In 2006 the European Union introduced regulations (WEEE) for the collection and recycling of all waste electrical and electronic  
equipment. It is no longer allowable to simply throw away electrical and electronic equipment. Instead, these products must  
enter the recycling process.  
Each individual EU member state has implemented the WEEE regulations into national law in slightly different ways. Please  
follow your national law when you want to dispose of any electrical or electronic products. More details can be obtained from  
your national WEEE recycling agency.  
Germany  
Die Europäische Union hat mit der WEEE Direktive umfassende Regelungen für die Verschrottung und das Recycling von  
Elektro- und Elektronikprodukten geschaffen. Diese wurden von der Bundesregierung im Elektro- und Elektronikgerätegesetz –  
ElektroG in deutsches Recht umgesetzt. Dieses Gesetz verbietet vom 24.März 2006 an das Entsorgen von entsprechenden,  
auch alten, Elektro- und Elektronikgeräten über die Hausmülltonne! Diese Geräte müssen den lokalen Sammelsystemen bzw.  
örtlichen Sammelstellen zugeführt werden! Dort werden sie kostenlos entgegen genommen. Die Kosten für den weiteren  
Recyclingprozess übernimmt die Gesamtheit der Gerätehersteller.  
France  
En 2006, l'union Européenne a introduit la nouvelle réglementation (DEEE) pour le recyclage de tout équipement électrique et  
électronique.  
Chaque Etat membre de l’ Union Européenne a mis en application la nouvelle réglementation DEEE de manières légèrement  
différentes. Veuillez suivre le décret d’application correspondant à l’élimination des déchets électriques ou électroniques de  
votre pays.  
Italy  
Nel 2006 l’unione europea ha introdotto regolamentazioni (WEEE) per la raccolta e il riciclo di apparecchi elettrici ed elettronici.  
Non è più consentito semplicemente gettare queste apparecchiature, devono essere riciclate. Ogni stato membro dell’ EU ha  
tramutato le direttive WEEE in leggi statali in varie misure. Fare riferimento alle leggi del proprio Stato quando si dispone di un  
apparecchio elettrico o elettronico.  
Per ulteriori dettagli fare riferimento alla direttiva WEEE sul riciclaggio del proprio Stato.
