Know your gear
This USB 3.0 to VGA video adapter works as an external video card, enabling the USB port on your computer to output video to a VGA display at 1920 x 1200 resolution. The adapter also features on-board driver installation, which means the adapter will work when you connect it, even without a software disc or Internet connection.
For the ultimate in hassle-free installation, this USB video adapter features on-board drivers which prompts for installation as soon as you connect the adapter to your Ultrabook or laptop computer. This means you can maximize portability by never requiring an installation disc or Internet connection to install the device.
Adding a second or third display to your computer can vastly increase your productivity by giving the freedom to access more applications at the same time. This video adapter is intended to support all of your business applications including web browsing, e-mail, spreadsheets and presentations. You can also leave your system video card available for more demanding applications such as gaming or CAD design, while you use the USB monitor for reference material.
Using the high-bandwidth USB 3.0 interface, this adapter enables smoother scrolling through documents, higher refresh rates and an overall enhanced performance over USB 2.0. The adapter is optimized for use with USB 3.0, but for added compatibility this adapter is also backward compatible with USB 2.0 computer systems supporting an 800 x 600 resolution at 60Hz.

Great for External Screens
I use then when I have a user that needs to add a screen and have no more screen ports available.

The product is good and meeting the requirements if it is hooked up to one monitor.
But, if you have dual monitors, the adapter is not picking up sometimes. You have remove the USB and put it back to look for the second monitor.
Other than that, no issues and it is working fine.
I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.
Thank you

It works but you need a driver download first...
It works but you need driver download first. if you're in a quick loaner pool. Nope, get the other one. Not convenience plug and play. You'll need plug and pray for non-technical folks.

Was not compatible with Machine
After looking through the inventory I found this product which seems like the perfect solution for the new computers that were going to be changed out at my job. It's both the device AND the drivers; no need to store a disk, or hunt online for each new computer. We ordered them and attached them to the new computers but they did not work. No solid explanation as to why, it just says it's not compatible with the video card. More than likely have to return them and get an older model which we do know works with the machines. This product did a major hit on our time and productivity.

Not easy
I receive the startech VGA video adapter as a free item for my honest review. It was not as easy as I thought it was because it was my first time using an adapter on my television from my computer. I still had to have my son help me because no directions were sent with it. But as soon as my son showed me who is 12 years old how to get everything together it was easy. If you`re not super technical person like myself just make sure you have someone that`s there to show you how to use the product and then you`d be able to use it successfully.

Slowed down the video of all monitors.
I installed this on my machine and the mouse and other response times of my machine slowed down. My mouse now stutters across the screen never moving smoothly. It is plugged into a USB 3 port and I am using a 7th Gen I5 processor with 8GB of RAM. If I unplug the device my computer works normally, When I plug it in everything slows down. Running Windows 10 Pro. I just use this PC for word processing and excel and other low video required programs. Even reducing the resolution on the monitor did little to help the issue.

Wont Use This Any More
I tested this USB to VGA adapter using a couple different laptops and after some testing I determined that I will not use it any more.
The adapter comes in a box the size of a couple Blu-ray disk cases. The adapter is slightly longer than the length of my hand and is made of a smooth plastic. I noticed that it didn't feel as sturdy as other StarTech products and is a little light.
When I connected the adapter to my computer, I heard the OS chime that something was connected but nothing ever happened. I looked at the manual (which I never had to do before for StarTech adapters). The adapter has a built-in USB drive "FL2000DX" with the drivers needed to get started. I installed the included software "Fresco Logic Inc." and I then had to reboot. After I was able to connect and begin using the VGA port. The video from the adapter was slow as video lagged slightly compared to my main screen. Later I determined that not only did the installer load a driver "Fresco Logic IDDCX", it also installed its own software and put itself in the start-up items on my computer. In these days of viruses and backdoors, it doesn't make sense to risk my computer or network with this software. A few weeks after using this adapter, I noticed my computer running slowly and I uninstalled the Fresco software to get my computer running smoothly again.
I was hoping to use this product regularly but I can't put my network at risk with this untrusted and unstable software. I received this product in exchange for an unbiased review.
