I use Win 7 & 2 monitors. Will this let me: resize & move my windows, drag them from one monitor to the other easily? EASILY being key. Thanks!

I don't use two monitors. However, anything that you can do with your regular touchpad you can do with the Logitech touch pad, in my experience.

The touchpad can only control one computer. Not sure if the two monitors where hooked up to one computer, but if I was to guess it should like any wired or wireless mouse would might use.

Two monitors works fine, but you have to drag a time or two to cover the horizontal distance, identical to if you were using a mouse. Takes a few days to become accustomed, but works great after that.

Well, I have never done it before but I am sure it is possible. Windows 8 is not that bad though, even better now with 8.1.. Might as well just stick with it till you get accustomed to the layout.

I just tried it with Windows 7 and it worked. I used the HDMI port on the left and the VGA port on the right. I believe when you do this you can no longer your the laptop screen (as a 3rd screen). Now maybe if you have the laptop docked you could run 3 monitors but not 100% sure

It that you can connect two monitors. Windows 7 will allow you to either duplicate/ replicate the desk top screen or extend the desk top onto the 2nd monitor as the others have mentioned. It typically works great. Most people extend their desktop allowing them more space for viewing/working.

oh yeah. and it's awesome - currently have 2 monitors on an arm, and 2 of these on the desk in front of each. apparently my video card will take another one... just trying to figure out where it would go! i had to use a different USB on my computer than the one i initially tried, possibly a power issue as noted in the other answer

I thought I only had to connect the two computers Windows 7 to Windows 7 and start transfer and that it would transfer the programs and the files therefor. Do you mean to say that I have to install every program I have then transfer the files? There are dozens.

i have 2 monitors hooked up - 1 through standard VGA and 1 through a DVI -> HDMI connector (the computer has an HDMI port). but they are old monitors, and it took a bit of doing to find the correct windows drivers. but it is doable.

Works great with windows 8. It loads before my monitor completely wakes up!

To echo the others' responses - yes, it allows different applications on all of the monitors. It essentially gives you one huge desktop. The best (and free) program to manage this is called "Display Fusion" which lets you "stretch" your wallpaper from one monitor to another. Here's a picture of my system (if Amazon allows links) http://www.flickr.com/photos/diannewood/8230467243/sizes/l/in/photostream/

I believe you asking if you can setup multiple monitors with in windows with this device, No, one input that is reproduced 4 times.

I have 2 monitors on my system, one using the built in DVI, the other using HDMI. I am running Win 7 and both work side by side just fine. I can move the mouse between them and it acts as if its just one monitor. All of this without and extra video card. Does that help?

if you are talking about porting over a copy of windows 7 os from one system to another, i am afraid i do not know. if i had to guess,i would say no - that is only a guess. if you mean data from one win7 machine to another win 7 machine yes. i do it all the time.

This is only meant to mirror the picture between two displays. It will not create a second workspace or extension of your current monitor. This is meant for creating two monitors with the same picture. If you are looking to work with two monitors at the same time with different programs open on each of them. You will need either a video card with two outputs on it or two separate video cards. Does this make sense?

I'm still running on win 7 so I can answer that question, but if you have a monitor that's 1920x1080 hd then it won't run. I had to hook up my old 1366x 768 monitor. Good luck on finding your answer. Maybe try google

I can't say. I'm one Win7 and one XP, with one VGA and one DVI monitor. Sometimes the mouse is very choppy after switching, but it seems to resolve itself quickly. Just a short, minor nuisance. It's not perfect, but I'm not unhappy with it. Call the mfr with your question. They were helpful and knowledgeable when I called.

I used this to transfer from Vista to Windows 7 with no problems. You need to install the program software on windows 7 PC before using the Easy Transfer Wizard open on both PC's along with the cable and files will transfer over into place. Now my question is do I have to buy another cable especially for Windows 7 to Windows 8 or will this cable do both?
