its okay for secondary stuff. don't expect video or anything beyond that to work. good for a chat service or to google things while remaining in game.

Good image quality

Hi! I'm currently working with a laptop running Windows 7. I use the laptop's screen and an aditional external monitor hooked up via VGA cable and it works perfectly. I now added the USB to VGA adapter and the image I got on the third screen is very detailed, very good. Althought all I got was the option to duplicate one of my two pre-existing screens onto this third monitor. How do I get the USB to VGA adpater to expand my workspace onto the third monitor? Thanks

This works better than anything I've tried to extend screens on multiple monitors from a laptop. Easy install, no monitor freezing, great with excel sheets! So glad a spent a little more $, so worth it!!!

It works!

My computer tech guy said it couldn't be done, said you could not connect a second monitor to my USB 2.0 port, after trying one purchased online from China. Well, this StarTech adapter proved him wrong! Setup was simple, and my second monitor works great! It was very easy to shop for it on the StarTech website...excellent descriptions of your items and their capabilities.

Have windows 7 enterprise, now using office 365 through citrix. any of the office 365 programs like outlook, excel and word will expand but looks messed up and is unusable on the USB monitor. is semi useable minimized. It seemed to run ok with an earlier version of office.

Since I connected a second monitor, thanks to Startech USB2VGAE2, I tripled my poductivity. I am a professor, and it was so easy reviewing student papers on one screen and posting my comments and grades on another screen. Now, I do not have to open and close windows, like before.
