Hp dx9000 touchsmart business as second monitor

My question is, could the HP dx9000 touchsmart business SERVE/BE the second monitor to another Windows 7 PC? I know the HP dx9000 touchsmart for business can HAVE a second monitor. My thought is NO, but need to confirm.
This question was solved.

Hello @hc0106,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that you are trying to use the HP dx9000 TouchSmart Business PC as a second monitor and are wondering how. I know on a comsumer Touchsmart product you cannot do this as only the HDMI (Gaming input) goes directly to the monitor (although it still has to be switched in the computer) and so it is not possible without tearing apart the computer to do what you are trying to do as the computer has a built in monitor not a monitor with a computer attached.
This may be different for a commercial product I am not sure. To find out for sure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums, since this is a commercial product. You can do this at HP Enterprise Business Community - Desktops and Workstations.
I hope this helps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

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.

Use laptop as second monitor for hp touchsmart 310-1020

Product name: HP TouchSmart 310-1020 PC.
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
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 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 :-)

Hello raybassett, Here is the link for the specifications for your system. It does not appear it has any external display connectors at all.

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.

Questions about connecting second monitor to HP 610-1015xt TouchSmart AIO

Hi,
I have a HP 610-1015xt touchsmart PC with AMD Radeon HD5570. Now I've gone through all the similar questions on this forum and I still had a couple of my own or needed some more calarity on some.
I've read time and again that one should use the second monitor in "clone" mode istead of "extended" mode because TouchSmart software is not compatilable with exteded mode. Now does that simply mean that my PC may show erratice behavior if I try to use touch features while in extended mode and second monitor connected? Because if that's the only issue, I can live with it as I don't use touch features at all. Also, will dsiabling touch help in any way?
Is anyone here using a second monitor in extended mode on a touchsmart? Have you guys faced any issues?
Also, what I'm trying to find out is if things will run smooth if I connect a HP 32" Quad HD monitor with 2560 x 1440 resolution? I have found a adapater called Plugable USB 3.0 to HDMI adapter which supports 2560 x 1440, I'm just trying to figure out if my PC will be able to hadle it? If anyone has any knowledge on this, please do share. Because if I can't get the full resolution, I will just settle for a full HD screen.
People, please do share your experinece or suggestions. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jay

Jay, I own a notebook without touch but a monitor with touch. I use my monitor as extended monitor. The touch works fine on the extended monitor and works without touch on the notebook screen. I do not face any issues in using this way. Depending on my need, it switch my primary display to the extended touch monitor or notebook screen. Whether it is the primary display or not, when in extended mode, the touch works fine on my monitor.
Regarding the other question on Quad monitors, my knowledge is limited. Sorry for not being able to answer that part of the question.
I am an HP employee.

Vidya

Can I use the HDMI out on a HP ALL IN ONE TOUCHSCREEN Desktop to connect a second monitor with HDMI

Can I use the HDMI out on a HP ALL IN ONE TOUCHSCREEN Desktop to connect a second monitor with HDMI in without any additional software or graphics adaptor. I have a 520-1070
HP - 23" Touch-Screen TouchSmart All-In-One Computer - 8GB Memory - 2TB Hard Drive ? I used a HDMI to HDMI cable and the monitor was not recognized.

Here are the specs for your HP TouchSmart 520-1070 Desktop Computer. As previously stated your computer Doesn't have a HDMI output, instead it has a HDMI input. This is designed to let you connect a game console, a DVD/Bluray player, etc. to use as a monitor.
If you wish to conect a second monitor to your computer, you will need to use a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 or EVGA UV Plus+ UV19. Using an adapter like these with the touch feature of your computer may cause issues with pointer control and you may need to disable the touch feature to use "extended desktop".

How do I Add second monitor to ALL in One ENVY23 that has a HDMI port

How do I Add second monitor to my ALL in One ENVY23 that has a HDMI port the computer has Win 8 Model #: 23se-d494
Product #: F3D93AA#ABA
Serial #: [edited Serial Number by Moderator]
Software Build #: 14AM1HRA601#SABA#DABA

Here are the specs for your HP ENVY TouchSmart 23se-d494 All-in-One Desktop Computer. Based the specs, the HDMI port on the side of your computer is an INPUT only. This model doesn't have a video output of any kind.

You will need to purchase and use a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 (or any of the many other adapters on the market) to connect an external display to your computer. I personally use and recommend the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39.

CS4 - Is there a way to adjust gamma for second monitor or send to overlay?

One thing that is evident when I edit in Premiere CS4 using the AVCHD 1080i 60 template is that the preview in the second monitor, which in my case is my TV set connected using a DVI to HDMI cable, is that the output is too dark compared to what it should be. Darker areas of the frame sometimes even get crushed into black when the same footage, when played directly from the camcorder, or even burned to blu-ray and played, is noticeably brighter and at the right black levels.
This doesn't happen when editing in Vegas Pro 8, or when the untouched footage is played through other video player, including Windows 7 Media Center.
A workaround for this problem can be to go to the graphics card control panel, in my case ATI Catalyst, and adjust the gamma for the second monitor, with the problem being that when you're done editing in Premiere you have to go back to the normal gamma. At one point I had setup two profiles in Catalyst with shortcuts and it worked well, but one day Catalyst simply lost the profiles and noticing how buggy it was I wasn't going to keep creating profiles so that Catalyst would delete them.
So my question is, since it's not in the preferences, is there some settings file or registry address that I can tweak to make Premiere display a brighter gamma of my choice?
And this may be a dead end, but is there a way to send the output of the second monitor to the overlay so that it can take advantage of the graphic's card video capabilities and display video smoothly? It's nice to have a preview of the timeline, but it's rather annoying if I have to go to the Catalyst control panel and adjust gamma before editing and after editing and that motion is jerky and not interlaced when I'm editing interlaced content.

You need the VESA mount option. That way your minimum angle would be completely vertical and you could open it to a negative 10 degrees.
Hope this helps.

Second monitor using VGA to HDMI or alternative?

Hi,
I recently purchased a HP ENVY TouchSmart 15-j038tx Notebook PC.
I have a Dell monitor, which only uses the VGA output.
I have a sony vaio VGA to HDMI adapter, and I tried this adapter with the monitor, it worked fine. I was able to use the monitor as second screen.
However, when I use the same adapter on the HP computer, the second monitor is black and do not get recognised.
Can someone please helpe me!!!!
Do I need to buy a new VGA to HDMI that's specifically built for HP computers?
Or
Do I need to download some drivers to make this work? I just updated the computer with the drivers as I purchased this only a few weeks ago.
or
Do I need to get a different adapter? like VGA to USB? Is there such a thing?
The Dell monitor is about 5 years old, but if it works on my Sony Vaio Pro 13 Laptop that just got released, I don't see why it won't work on the HP too.
Many Thanks

There is a possibility that all you need to do is go into the display properties of the HP and have it look for the adapter.
First the model number of the HP and then the Windows version that is installed, please.

How to attach a second monitor

I would like to attach a second monitor to my TouchSmart Envy 23 PC. It will not work with a HDMI Cable. Can anyone please help me with how to do it.

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.

Use as second monitor

Can the Ipad be used as a second monitor. Attaching it to my powerbook for business presentations and production on the go.

Wow, the iDisplay seems pretty cool. However I would imagine that the iPad wouldn't make a very functional second display. I would just spring for a second monitor and set up a second display that way. Using the iPad as your second monitor is just going have lag time as it is all wireless. Also what use is having a multi-touch device when you're using it in a way that doesn't utilize its touch capacity.

IQ770 /771 setting or checking the resolution of a second monitor

Hi I have a Touchsmart 771 and would like to use a second monitor, I have a spare HP W19 monitor that as far as I can see is the same resolution as the integrated monitor ( 1440x900 60Hz). If I connect this to the external port it seems to work fine when a second screen at it's native resolution. When I use the Nvidia tool to select a clone display both displays reduce in resolution.
I can't find any way in the Nvidia tool to display what the resolution is or to be able to try and change it.
I am happy to buy another monitor if for some reason the W19 screen is causing the problem but don't wan't to spend that money to find that it does not.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I wasn't really expecting a reply - a bit of an oddball question!
Anyway, this is what I did in the end just in case anyone in the future needs it:
private boolean locationAndSizeOK(int posX, int posY, int width, int height)
        if ((width < MINIMUM_FRAME_WIDTH) || (height < MINIMUM_FRAME_HEIGHT))
            return false;
        GraphicsDevice[] devices = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getScreenDevices();
        // Find out if the top left or right corner is in one of the screens.
        for (GraphicsDevice device : devices)
            // Get the bounds and the insets (i.e. task bar).
            Rectangle bounds = device.getDefaultConfiguration().getBounds();
            Insets screenInsets = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenInsets(device.getDefaultConfiguration());
            // Calculate visible area.
            int x1 = bounds.x + screenInsets.left;
            int x2 = bounds.x + bounds.width - screenInsets.right;
            int y1 = bounds.y + screenInsets.top;
            int y2 = bounds.y + bounds.height - screenInsets.bottom;
            // Top left corner.
            if ((posX > x1) && (posX < (x2 - SCREEN_BUFFER_X)))
                if ((posY > y1) && (posY < (y2 - SCREEN_BUFFER_Y)))
                    return true;
            // Top right corner.
            int rightCornerX = posX + width;
            if ((rightCornerX > (x1 + SCREEN_BUFFER_X)) && (rightCornerX < x2))
                if ((posY > y1) && (posY < (y2 - SCREEN_BUFFER_Y)))
                    return true;
        return false;
    }It works in all cases I require...
Cheers, Boomah.
