I have a Windows 10 Dell laptop with three monitors plugged in to a Dell Display Link box (two HDMI and one DisplayPort). Everything worked well for several months, but now my Windows display settings show me eight monitors available (there should only be four including the laptop screen).
I had this problem before but rebooting used to be a quick fix. Now, even a reboot doesn't fix the problem. I updated my Display Link drivers from version 7.9 to 8.0, but the problem remains.
Any ideas of what to look for?

However, every now and then, I get a message saying that the driver crashed (on one of the monitors). I tried to update the drivers again, but I am not sure if its gonna do it yet. – Philippe – 2016-11-15T13:34:05.583
Then try reinstalling to specific driver version -> 15.40.4.64.4256 (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25150/Intel-Iris-Iris-Pro-and-HD-Graphics-Production-Driver-for-Windows-10-64-bit)
