Symptoms

I have several DisplayLink external monitors. I want to use them in my virtual machine also. But every time when I try to run my virtual machine all external displays become black. Only when I shut down virtual machine the displays start to work properly.

Cause

DisplayLink drivers conflict with Parallels video driver.

Information

Parallels Desktop does not support the DisplayLink drivers at the present time.
