Failure rate of the Accell Mini-DP to DVI-D adapter

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
As I've mentioned in a previous thread, I've been having display port link failures with my third monitor.

I've already ruled out my cards and the monitor, so I know they aren't at fault.

I've tried to update the firmware of my Accell adapter, but it always tells me no dongle is connected.

The third monitor gets no picture, regardless of resolution set, and I get the DisplayPort Link Failure error twice in succession.

Anyone have any idea how to proceed before I call them up and ask about their replacement policy.

Try it on another screen and use a different cable... after that send it for RMA.

If you are using the USB power type plug it in a different USB port and/or get an external pure 1amp 5v power source.
