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.

  • 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 attach my HP monitor w1907 to Mac air with a DVI cable?

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

  • I cannot continue to use my external hard disk which I used with windows. OS 10.8 can read it but declares the disk as "read only". Is there a way to change this?

    Hallo everyone,
    I just tried my external disk on my Macbook air and I cannot save data to it any longer. This external disk was used with windows. Now i want to use it with macbookAir as I have changed my computer. It seems that OSX.10.8.5 can read the data on this external drive but when I try to save new data to it (pdf documents from the web for example) it refuses to save the data ans the message I get is that my drive is "read only". Please is there a way to change this or do I have to format the re-format the external drive?
    Thanks for your help

    You will have to reformat the drive for use with a Mac.
    Mac only: Format as MacOS Extended (Journaled)
    Mac and Windows: Format to MSDOS

  • Can I still download Adobe 9 Pro Extended and will it work with Windows 8 64 bit?

    Can I still download Adobe 9 Pro Extended and will it work with Windows 8 64 bit?

    It is not clear what application you mean when you say Adobe 9 Pro Extended, so it ois not certain if it is available for you to download.  If you can diownload it, it will only be valid for a 30 day trial unless you already own it and have a serial number to activate the trial with.
    You can search the following site and see if you can find the trial version to download... this site is the only likely place you might find the software available for download.
    If you find it there, be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site or else the download will not work properly.

    i have ipod classic contens i tunes 4. earlier i was using with windows xp but now i would like to install it in windows 7. how can i?

    Thanks to all for reviewing my question.  I am trying to avoid a possible disaster here, having to load about 90 cd's all over again.  If anyone knows, could you tell me what will happen if I download iTunes 9.0, and install it.  Will it copy all of my music into it, or fail to recognize it, or recognize 8.0 and just upgrade rather than replace it?  Thanks again.  Tom

  • HT3986 can bootcamp be used with Windows install disk on an external drive (internal is broken) ?

    can bootcamp be used with Windows install disk on an external drive (internal is broken) ?

    With Boot Camp, you must install Windows onto in internal HDD (or SSD).  If you are referring that your internal Optical drive is broken, you might be able to install Windows from an external drive, but you might not.  I have heard varying levels of success with that.  I'm not sure what the official stance is, but I do know that if youe machine shipped with an internal optical drive, then you must use that to install Windows using Boot Camp and not swap it out for a "data doubler" and try to install from an external optical drive.

  • Can time capsule be used with windows programs

    can time capsule be used with windows as a wi fi router? or dose the disk that came with the time capsule work with windows program?

    The wifi router side will work fine.
    The disk that came with the TC should have windows version of airport utility but you can download it.. that is important if you want to setup the TC or use the shared disk.

    I have a legit copy of 4.3 on an old unit. Can it be burned on a dvd and installed on new PC with windows 8.1?

    Yes, one you have your LR 4 user license. (if it was an upgrade from an earlier version then you will also need the earlier version license key.)
    You can get the latest update for LR 4 from the link below, and install that instead of the 4.3 version.
