Hooking up a touchsmart IQ500 series as a monitor

Is it possible to hook up a TouchSmart IQ500 Series computer as a touch screen monitor for another HP Computer (Envy Phoenix 810 running Windows 365.

Hello aefontenot,
I understand that you are looking into using your HP TouchSmart IQ500 AiO PC as a monitor to another HP Computer. The answer is "NO" you may be able to connect a computer to it using an adapter like an HDMI to USB adapter, but I was unable to locate the functionality to allow you to switch inputs on this computer.
I hope I answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

    Doesn't it use an external AC Adapter? If so, all you should need to use in another country is an adpater plug to match the wall socket.

    Hi Kozi:
                Welcome to HP forum. You mean replacing this page will show you how to excess it and replace it. You still need to order a new one.

  • TouchSmart IQ500 Series PC & HDMI

    I'm attempting to connect another monitor to my Touchsmart however, I cannot seem to locate the HDMI connection? Does the IQ500 series HAVE an HDMI connection? And if not, how may I utilize a dual monitor with this computer?
    Thank you very much!
    ~ Karen

    Oh lovely! That is too bad. But thanks for the reply, anyway.  Was attempting to share the HDMI with a 40 inch LCD TV... so I guess I'm out of luck... that's too bad

  • Hello, I have such problem. My TouchSmart IQ500 when turned on shows only startup screen.

    When I turn on the TouchSmart IQ500, it shows only startup screen.
    Pressing F11 (System recovery) does not affect anything.
    Pressing F10 - it writes entering setup... and nothing more happens
    Pressing F9 - also no response.
    Please tell me what can be done?

    It sounds a LOT like a dead hard drive, running diagnostics would be a good place to start.

  • TouchSmart IQ500 and Win8?

    Hello.
    HP TouchSmart IQ500.
    System #: FK936AA-ABG
    Serial #: 3CR----B32(blanked for security)
    Model #: IQ518a
    What is HP's position on this machine and Win8?
    I have one of these machines running Win8 64-bit, but it often gives problems.
    Video driver issues with the screen going blank(which I learn by reading other posts, is quite a common issue with Win8 on the TouchSmart machines), and recently, sound problems, where the sound just mutes by itself, and there is nothing you can do to make the sound work again.  Sometimes, if you wait a while it works again, but the sound can just fail half way through a movie for no apparent reason.  There is NO warning, wierd sounds or anything - it just dies and you can't get sound again from that point.  Rebooting SOMETIMES fixes the problem, but only with about a 75% success rate.  It is NOT the application causing the problem with the sound - no applicaiton that uses sound will output it - not even the Windows Sound app in Control Panel.
    So, at the end of the day, can someone at HP please confirm for me if this model machine is actually compatible with Win8?
    I am guessing that it is NOT supported at this stage, as I have not been able to find any Win8 specific drivers for this model machine, unless I am not looking in the right place, and that is quite possible!!!!
    Thanks for any replies.

  • I'm trying to install a new samsung 27" series 7 750 monitor. I have a macmini. when i plug the cord in between the computer and the mknitor, the screen goes white, but no display. When not plugged into the computer the screen stays black and cycles

    I'm trying to install a samsung series 7 750 monitor for use with my mini mac. When I plug the computer to the monitor I get a blank screen, no picture. When not plugged in to the computer the screen is black and a square displAys that says analog, HDMI 1, HDMI 2. Any ideas?

    Hey there saraszeg,
    It sounds like you are trying to use an external monitor with your Mac Mini but cannot get more than a gray screen. You can use the following steps to help troubleshoot the Mac side of things here:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1573
    Remove all display cable extenders, KVM switches, or other like devices and retest to determine if the issue is resolved.
    Try unplugging the video adapter or cable and then plug it back in.
    If more than one video adapter is in use (or "daisy-chained"), troubleshoot by using only one adapter.
    Example: A mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter connected to a DVI to HDMI adapter is an unsupported configuration because there is a series of adapters in use.
    If available, try using a different display and or adapter (or use a different connector by using DVI instead of VGA, for instance).
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
    Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

    Hi,
    I believe the above link shows wrong information about speakers. Please use the following manual to check again (page #15) because there are few models for the whole series:
       http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03351672.pdf
    Looks like some models have output for speakers, not built-in as mentioned on page #2:

  • Black Screen After Windows 8 64-bit Upgrade (Clean Install) on TouchSmart IQ508A (IQ500 series)

    Hi there,
    Just installed Windows 8 and am getting a black screen after booting up like many others. I currently have disabled the graphics driver and this has solved the black screen issue but I can no longer use my web cam for Skype (although web cam works for W8 Camera App oddly).
    To date I have tried the following:
    Loading up the latest Nvidia drivers from the Nvidia website
    Attempting to use the drivers for Windows 7 both in compatability mode and normally. I unzipped SP44488 to get this working
    I know many others are having this problem so I really would  like someone from HP to respond and state whether a Windows 8 display driver for the Nvidia GE Force 9300M GS is being developed.
    I ran the compatability wizard prior to the clean install and it came up with no issues so I am very disappointed I am having these problems.
    I've found out that HP have a customised version of the above card so that explains why the Nvidia drivers dont work so I believe HP is therefore obligated to provide a driver.
    If anyone else is having similar issues please respond as this will hopefully lead to more action.
    cheers
    Steve

    I'm in the same boat. On my IQ804, the Nvidia GE Force 9300M GS card crashes when I use NVidia's latest Windows 8 driver and Microsoft's LIVE UPDATE drivers.  I have to resort to the Standard VGA driver in order for the pc not to crash into a black screen.
    I read on another forum you can try installing a July 2012 version of the driver from NVidia and that should solve the problem.  I tried it once. Using the July 2012 version, the screen would stay on longer, but eventually it crashes into a black screen...but definitely more usable than the latest from NVidia and Microsoft.
    I too have heard that HP used a customized version of the graphics card and that's why neither HP nor NVidia's drivers work.
    I also tried installing the Nvidia GE Force 9300M GS drivers for Windows 7 that I downloaded from the HP website.  It didn't work either.  It actually failed to install altogether, saying my system is incompatible.
    As is, the pc works fine.  But videos and games that require motion is noticably choppy.
    Any help from HP??

  • It is possible to install a graphics card for the hp touchsmart iq504 series?

    Hey folks I've had my pc for awhile now. According to the datasheet it saids that a graphics card can be upgraded but the power supply may need to also be upgraded check with the company of the graphics card. So i tried email hp but no answer on the question. Im thinking of trying to get either a ati radion 4270 512 mb card or nvida if its allowed. Mostly from online search through google many folks say its upgradeable but when gaming it acts more like a laptop their for performance is horrible. Is this true? I've tried to install games on my laptop that has a radion hd 4250 graphics card but gaming just doesnt add up the same as a desktop. So if anybody has some opinions or tips that could help me in area would gladly appreciate it.
    Thanks hp fan gmoney38

    The graphics in the IQ5xx series can not be upgraded in the way you're thinking, the Touchsmart line does indeed resemble a laptop more than a desktop.
    In general the opinion is that it is not worth persuing a graphics update for these products.

  • Another Topic Post OVER A DEAD HP TOUCHSMART TX2 SERIES

    I'm a college student, and for my highschool graduation my family was kind enough to get me a laptop. Now the school I attend recommended an a Tablet. So my parents get me the Hp TouchSmart Tx2.
    Now the computer ran great in the first few mins, intill my lap starting buring from the heat of the bottom.
    The computer worked fine intill about 4 months in....the hard drive starts clicking...i send it in....still under warrenty get the hard drive replaced.
    Get it back works fine, 5months later, screen goes black, can't even log on....hp tells me the motherboard needs replaced around 500 bucks.....now i've seen the constant chatter about the tx series and I've read that the dv series has the same motherboard as the tx series and the dv series got recalled. NOW, i'm not going to let my parents hard earned cash go to waste.....WTF is the point of this forum if HP DOESN"T EVEN ACKNOWLEGE ANY OF IT......I'm already neck deep in student loans....I can't afford fixing a computer with a defect.....So Hp i better hear something from you soon
    There is something wrong with these laptops, and innocent....already in debt families are paying the price.

    Lets take a chance it is for W7
    go here and download the correct version of W7 (home or pro, they don't have a starter edition), bit version 32 or 64, and language, it will be a very large iso file, once downloaded, burn it to a DVD+R blank disc as an Image, this can be done on a Windows 7 PC, by right clicking on the iso file and select "open with" > "windows disc image burner"
    http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-windows-7-s​p1-iso-from-digital-river/
    This will make a regular windows 7 install disc you can use to get Windows installed, use the key to see if it will activate.
    Then you will have to download drivers for your particular model from the HP site and install.

    try external USB sound card option, m-audio or creative are a couple off the top of my head you could use. they usually come with a full driver and product suit that  can achieve a much better sound than the soundmax in touchsmart have to offer.
