Daisy-chaining Dell MST and non-MST display

Hi,


I wanted to connect two screens to my MBP:

1 DELL U2713H (daisy chainable)

1 DELL U2713HM


so I connected the U2713H to my MBP via miniDP and daisychained the U2713HM via DP on the U2713H. I activated DP 1.2 on the U2713H. The whole system started flickering on Win 7 and then crashed Windows so bad that I had to reboot a couple of times before everything worked with only the U2713H connected.


I also tried it on MacOS and here both screens showed a halfway ok picture, but the same one, i.e. MacOS did not recognize the U2713HM only the U2713H


If I understand the specs correctly, everything should work properly. Any idea why it does not work?

MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2012), Mac OS X (10.7.5), Windows 7
