UFX7000 USB Graphics Driver ‐ SMSC UFX7000 / UFX6000 Driver Software
This is Release 5.2.59.0297 of SMSC's Sgfx ViewSpan (c) Software for the UFX6000 and UFX7000.
This driver software is for Microsoft Windows XP (32‐bit only), Windows Vista, Microsoft
Windows 7 operating systems (32‐bit and 64‐bit) and Windows Multipoint Server 2011 (x64).
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. Since this new release utilizes the Windows Driver Framework 1.11, you may be required to reboot
the computer system during the installation or upgrade process.
2. UFX6000 / UFX7000 devices cannot operate when other vendor's USB graphics product is connected
to the host system. Please disconnect the other vendor's USB graphics product when UFX is
connected. Failure to do so may lead to system instability.
3. UFX6000 / UFX7000 Windows 7 or Vista drivers require the original native display adapter in the system
to be running WDDM drivers. Please ensure the native display adapter has been updated to the latest
available WDDM graphics drivers BEFORE installing the UFX6000 / UFX7000 software.
4. Support for Hybrid/switchable graphics architecture is a new feature included as of 3.0 release.
Significant testing has been done in many Windows 7 platforms to ensure satisfactory operation.
However, since switchable graphics is a non‐standardized feature, there could be some unforeseen
configurations in which our current solution experiences issues. Should you experience such a situation
the following are some tips that could help you overcome it until we can provide a solution.
For Windows 7 installations, if more than one native display adapter is running in the system (i.e. hybrid
systems) it is recommended that if a hybrid graphics control application exists in the system, it be set to
use the "Integrated graphics" mode. In that case it should not be necessary to manually disable any
display adapter in device manager. If a hybrid display control panel with integrated graphics selection is
not available, it is recommended that one of the display adapters be disabled for maximum compatibility
and guaranteed proper operation. In the latter case if one of the native adapters is Intel, it is
recommended to disable the other one. Hybrid support will continue to be improved in future
releases.
5. Reboot‐less install/uninstall features :
This release supports a reboot‐less feature for Windows 7 and Vista: when the installer is executed it
automatically enables the UFX display which will be ready for use (in either extended or cloned
mode) immediately without prompting or requiring a system reboot.
Certain exceptions apply:
‐ Systems where the primary display adapter does not expose a disable option (as can be seen in
device manager) such as the HP Elite 8740w notebook.
‐ Under Windows Vista and 7 if the version of the WDF framework running in the system at the time
the installation is performed is below 1.11.
When uninstallation is performed for Windows 7 and Vista, all UFX modules are uninstalled and
removed from the system and no reboot of the system is either prompted or required upon
completion. Some exceptions where reboot is required could occur (i.e. primary display not
exposing a disable option in device manager).
For Windows XP, the XDDM display driver model technology characteristics in this operating system
make it unfeasible to achieve a reboot‐less installation experience. While a reboot may not be
required if the installation of the software is performed while no USB display hardware devices are
plugged in to the system; a reboot will be required shortly after a USB display hardware device is
plugged in for the first time (and possibly an additional reboot will be required each time another
new device is plugged in for the first time when more than one is used).
Uninstallation of the software under Windows XP will also require a reboot due to the same
previously noted XDDM limitations.
6. This release supports software updates via software first installation of a new version of the driver
package. Updates to the "SMSC Core Graphics Software" module will also be offered via Microsoft
Windows update when available.
D.4 Windows 7 and Vista Full Screen D3D only Applicable Issues
1. Pointer (Mouse cursor) will most likely not appear correctly when using software cursor
a. Some applications may not display the pointer at all
b. Some applications may display the pointer and desktop wallpaper flashing intermittently
with the actual application screen. This issue is not applicable with hardware cursor.
