Can I attach a second monitor to a TouchSmart 320-1030?

Can I attach a second monitor to a TouchSmart 320-1030? It has only USB i/o ports. How do I do it? Will the software support it if I can find the right hardware? Can I use an older VHS monitor with some sort of a USB/VHS conversion gadget?

These units do not have any video out capability, you will need a USB to VGA/HDMI/DVI adapter from a 3rd party, there's no such thing as a "VHS monitor" did you mean VGA? if so then the statement above applies, as it does for all the other 9 million threads on this same subject :-)

Can I add a second monitor to a TouchSmart 520-1070?

Can I add a second monitor to a TouchSmart 520-1070? Can it be done through a USB port with a USB to DVI converter?

To connect your HP TouchSmart 520-1070 desktop computer to a second monitor or a TV, you will need to purchase a USB-to-video adapter. I recommend the eVGA UV Plus+ 19 USB-to-Video Adapter, however many of these other USB-to-video adapters should also work.
FYI... with a touch screen, you can only "clone" the desktop... trying to "extend" the desktop may cause problems using the computer.

Hi, The HDMI port on your machine is an IN port, you can't attache a monitor to it. If you wish to connect to a second computer, please try http://www.startech.com/AV/USB-Video-Adapters/ Regards.

Can I add a second monitor to my MacBook Air notebook and use both monitors simultaneously?

Can I add a second monitor to my MacBook Air notebook and use both monitors simultaneously? For example, have a spreadsheet open on the notebook monitor while the second monitor is displaying an architectural drawing?

MiniDisplay-to-? adapters ... ? replaced by VGA or DVI or HDMI
Best to use only 1 adapter to match the intended cable since mutliple-adapter setup (buy a VGA, then add VGA-DVI adapter) tendsto lose signal strength.
Also graphics chips run hotter driving external display, and since the graphics chip in Air is part of the CPU the CPU may throttle itself as the integrated graphics chip heats up.
Two modes of operation:
Mirror ... same image both displays
Extended ... the other screen is "extra screen space"

You need to use a DVI to Mini DisplayPort adapter; for a 30-inch display, the adapter needs to be dual-link.

Best way to set up a second monitor with a Touchsmart

What's the best way to set up a second monitor for the Touchsmart IQ506? Is a USB to VGA cable the only way and how well does that work (I've read that they can be buggy)?
Are they any recommendations for products and setting it up?

Leopard wont be out befor the second half of this year, sofar i cannot tell you what options you are going to have with the new system. Seems like with time machine is going to be a perfect backup for your whole system.
10.4.x:
Software RAID you can do 0 -1:
To setup a RAID of your system you have to format the drive and setup the RAID type you want from the disk utility.
To have some security i suggest the "mirror" options but you are going to lose some perfomance, depending you want is your main job it mighn't be noticed.
RAID 5:
This would be the nicest option but you need to buy an additional RAID controller. This is mostly used on servers and not on client computers.

Can I attach an external monitor to my iMac G5 (ALS) if the video card is dead?

I don't know for a fact that the video card is dead, but the screen on my iMac (PPC/ALS) 20" gradually started flaking out over several months and is now dead. Computer boots up fine and I'm looking at it through target mode right now. I want to keep using the computer if I can, so I am wondering if I can attach an external monitor through the DVI slot even if the video card is kaput. I'd like to get an opinion or two on this before I buy a used monitor and cable. Thanks!

You have found the answer. If the video chipset is OK but there is a fault in the internal display or its cabing, an external monitor will work. However, if the video chipset--which is farther "upstream" in the system--goes bad, the option of an external monitor is off the table.

Can I attach a Touchscreen monitor to my W530 laptop to use with Window 8?

I purchased a W530 laptop with WIndows 8. Can I attach an external touchscreen monitor to use the Windows 8 touchscreen feature? I was told by tech people, in office stores, that it wouldn't work becasue Windows 8 looks at your primary display and see it isn't a touchscreen and turns of that feature during bootup. Thanks for the advice in advance.

Thanks. I did a search on the Thinkvison LT1423P monitor and it looks like it does what I need.. Thanks for the reference.

Merci.

Can i add a second moniter to hp touchsmart 310

Just need to know if I can add a second monitor to my hp touchsmart 310 pc

I use a USB display adapter to provide a choice of two extra monitors for my Touchsmart 300. I run a 17" monitor on a VGA cable from the USB display adapter and when I want to watch movies I change to an HDMI cable connected to my 42" Plasma and run that as a second display in the loungeroom. With the HP wireless remote, I can control the video and with the wireless mouse and keyboard I can surf the net on the BIG SCREEN! Cool!

Can I use my laptop as a second monitor for my HP? It doesn't have an hdmi port, so is there any software or converters someone suggests?

Sorry to say, but it won't be possible - any video ports on your notebook will be output only.
Actually that's not what the OP asked, and it's incorrect since you're not answering the question he asked. There are software packages out there that will let the OP do what they want between multiple PCs. Multiplicity by Stardock is a quick example http://www.stardock.com/products/multiplicity/ and it's only $30

Can I attach multiple external monitors to my Pavillion dv7 laptop?

I have one monitor connected through the HDMI interface and I would like to have another one attached as well. Can I use the VGA port (or the other flat one -- I do not kjnow what it is called) and have the monitors work in concert?
Thanks!

Hi, Jerry:
Theoretically you should be able to connect as many monitors as you have video out ports.
Since I don't have your model, I can only speculate.
I know that this is true of desktop PC's (where the onboard video is not disabled by an add on card).
I believe the other HDMI-looking port is a display port.

IMAC 27 - attached a second monitor - mouse tracking problem

After attaching a 19 inch lcd via the mini display port and a dvi adapter my mouse tracking has gone bad, not just from one screen to the other even just on the main screen if you move the mouse around it jumps several inches and is very inaccurate. problem goes away when the second mointor is unpluged.
Can anyone help?
Stephen

I'll add to the chorus: I have the 27" iMac, and I get the same mouse jumpiness when I connect my 24" Acer P244W display via the Mini DisplayPort-DVI adapter. Oddly enough, the mouse jumpiness is more pronounced when I use my old wired MS Intellimouse Optical than when I use the included Magic Mouse. I've confirmed with another Mac (and with this Mac minus the second display) that the wired mouse is functioning normally.
Basically, given slow, constant mouse movement, the cursor will hiccough for about a tenth of a second once every 1.0 seconds, like clockwork. Given more normal use, the cursor will continue to hiccough every second and will also occasionally jump to a completely unrelated location on the screen. (The wired mouse was the worse off here, jumping unpredictably several times a minute.)
I've unplugged the secondary display for now, but I kinda sorta really need it for Flash and video work. Apple, help!

Can I attach Keyboard and monitor to this laptop?

can''t find labeled photos to show me where I might attach a keyboard and a monitor to my 3000 N200. Can anyone help please?

Thanks. I attached my keyboard no problem. I rebooted and it works.
I also attached my Hanns-G plug and play monitor but it does not work. I have a cd, should I use the cd to install it? They guy in Atlanta wouldn't help but did say that I had to "point"" my settings to the new external monitor but I couldn't find where to do that. I looked in hardware and although keyboard was listed I didn't see this monitor.
So,
a- do I use the cd?
b- how do I point to this external monitor or don't I have to do that once I use the cd?
Thanks!
