You must also use USB cable for win 8, no drivers needed, windows will update

There are two cables that need to be plugged in. One is the hdmi and the second is a micro USB cable in the front left side of the computer wich will enable the touch screen functionality on the monitor.

I connected my VSD220 to my desktop computer with a micro-HDMI to HDMI cable. I am running Windows 7 but like you I am unable to get the Touch function to work. I did not get a driver disk either.....I am trying to set up 2 monitors and cannot get them to work together...

Hi PJ, I'm really sorry I can't answer your question but wanted let you know that I bought an Viewsonic andriod 23 Inch tablet 4 months ago and just a week ago the upper left of my touch screen does not work at all. You might reconsider, and look for something elseJo

Try going to the windows 8 screen, press hp and find the hp support. There you can update drivers, mine is great and I had some new drivers to install. Hope it helps!

i am sorry but it is not touch screen enabled...since before i ordered it, i already knew that. i was checking again the websites but i could not see where it says 'touch screen enabled'. i am not doubting you but...just that the laptop is not 'touch screen'. hope this satisfies your question.

I CANNOT get this device to show up on my brand new Vaio running Windows 7. It says the driver is installed, an update says I have the latest driver, I hear the 'connect' sound when I plug it in, but the little power LED on the device just lights up and goes right out. I turn around and plug it into my old XP computer......... and it works fine. So now I have to put the diskette in the device, device into XP computer, XP files to thumb drive, thumb drive over to laptop, and finally copy! ARRRRGH! What started out as a big project (100 diskettes) is going to take forEVER. :-/ Why, oh why, will it not show up in my Windows 7? Good luck to you!

Thanks for responding Mark.I got it working after three days of constant struggle by going to theeRecovery partition and basically reinstalling Windows, which erased allmy data. For anyone reading with this problem, hold down theALT button while repeatedly pressing F10 just as it starts up while the screen is still black. From there you can choose to use the Acer eRecovery feature.I have read so many horror stories about the warrenty service,people never seeing their computers again or getting a differentone back, or being told it was dropped so the warrenty is not validthat I was really trying not to use it.

The DVI to HDMI cable is responsible for the display. In order for the touch function to work, you have to connect the USB cable to your system.

The monitor will work but not as a touch monitor since only windows 8 has touch capabilities. Otherwise I really like the quality of the monitor.

1) Nope. I personally just downloaded the latest drivers from NVIDIA's website and it works fine. I thought it didn't at first, because the first thing I ran was Furmark to stress test it, and the second GPU wasn't working with it. However, it works fine in all my games. Runs like a champ! 2) There is a lot of CD burning software, McAfee (if you don't care for it), and a few miscellaneous things. I pretty much took off everything with the exception of a few Lenovo things (OneKey Recovery, Veriface, EasyCamera). Just go to Control Panel and uninstall them from there. Other than that, you should be fine.

Does the monitor work? Are you connecting it were another monitor was already connected? Already mentioned but is the monitor set to the right port? If you have more then just a new monitor you need to eliminate everything that is different in your new setup. Have you used the display port before? Is this a new cable? You already said the monitor was new.

Send the product into Asus and they will repair it. I sent mine in, and they also found a few dead pixels and a broken card reader, so they repaired everything without asking. When returned it worked perfect!

Hi, yes I have. You will need to download and install the driver from Lenovo.

Is monitor hooked up? When you check "Hardware and Sound" in the Control Panel does the Monitor show as a device? If there's a red x by the monitor that's listed you may have a problem. If possible hook up a different monitor just to be certain you don't have a faulty monitor.

The monitor does not have a USB hub that I can see. I use the ones in my computer.

Most model PC's have an HDMI port? You need to check your ports if no HDMI then check your manual to find what kind of system you have prior to committing to the mini display port!!

If you can only display on an external monitor, then I'd call it DOA. Send it back for a replacement.Acer or Amazon should have you set. Just make sure you register the Acer on their website if you plan to get a new one from them.

The monitor uses the eGalaxTouch software to allow the PC to communicate with the touchscreen. A CD with the software was missing so I had to download and use eGalaxTouch driver software. Anyway, there is a chance newer software or software updates will need to be developed to work with Windows 8.

Yes, the HDMI port works fine. The only problem most people are reporting with the HDMI functionality is that the driver, as shipped, does not allow the tablet display to be duplicated on the monitor/TV; you can only select "extend" mode or just the monitor/TV screen. A newer driver, available from the Toshiba support site, fixes that. Perhaps you have a defective cable?
