Even then, the monitor did not perform as seamlessly as it did on a PC, occasionally flickering and sometimes reverting to flashing colors as we browsed Web pages.ĭisplayLink said it was working with Apple on a fix and hopes to resolve the issue, but it could not provide timing.Ĭlick to EnlargeWe tested the AOC e1659fwu's performance on our two Windows notebooks by dragging windows across displays, editing a spreadsheet in Google Docs and watching a 720p trailer for "Thor: The Dark World" on YouTube. On two different MacBook Airs, we tried dragging Chrome and Finder windows over to the monitor, and the screen blinked black and white - and sometimes red, green, and blue - before displaying the content. According to AOC, DisplayLink's rep said it was aware of the problem happening with Safari, but that Chrome users should not encounter the problem. When we reached out to AOC about this issue, the company told us it was the first time they had encountered this problem and contacted DisplayLink. After installing the DisplayLink drivers on a MacBook Air and a MacBook Pro (we had to download them from DisplayLink's site), the AOC monitor would flicker any time we tried to move a window onto it from the Mac. Setting up the e1659fwu on a Mac was much more difficult. But once the drivers were installed, the e1659fwu worked without lag. We also tested the monitor with an older laptop (an Acer Aspire 4920) and the drivers took a significantly longer 30 minutes to install. Once the driver was installed, we flipped the monitor to portrait mode both the AOC display and our notebook screen blinked for about 3 seconds, and the e1659fwu was in portrait mode. Once the drivers were installed, both the AOC and laptop screens blinked for a few seconds before quickly reappearing.Ī separate driver had to be installed to enable the e1659fwu's Auto Pivot feature, which took a few minutes to download and run. We plugged one of the USB 2.0 ends into our Dell Latitude 6430u laptop, and the e1659fwu immediately started installing drivers on our notebook.
