Touch Screen by Jhrono on 07-07-2006 at 05:51 PM

Is there a way for me to have a touch screen working as a my second monitor ? Thanks

Edit : Keeping the touch screen feature..

It should work fine if you install all the drivers :undecided:

Yeah, but my doubt is if I can maintain my keyboard and mouse + normal monitor and then a touch screen. Can the touch screen co-exist with the mouse?

If it can, can anyone direct me to a touch screen that has S-Video input and USB or COM output ? (Since it can't be PS/2, as it's taken by the mouse)

Well if worst comes to the worst you can get a adapter for you mouse +keyboard and put it in the USB and put the touchsreen in the PS/2 ;)

I've know a single touch screen monitor to co-exist with a mouse and keyboard myself before now, so I can't see any reason why not mate.

Well,you could  install the touch as primary, and the one you have now as secondary, if it doesnt work...

If you shop around you can get an adaptor that combines a keyboard and mouse (both PS/2) into a single USB, for not a lot.
