Dual Monitors-One Touchscreen One LCD-Older Video Card?
Whats up all, first post on the question that caused me to stumble on the forums. I like the forums BTW, very informative, lots of knowledge among the users.
My question is only partially covered by the chosen forum (so please correct of necessary) since there is no monitor forum, but hey, I'm halfway covered right?
Anyway, to the point. I plan on running multiple monitors with one being a touchscreen.
First off, is this even possible? The thought crossed my mind that if there was a visible cursor, the touchscreen might not "grab" it properly. I need to be able to use the touchscreen as a lauch pad of sorts, with my most common files \ shorcuts on it, touch, open, back to the old school monitor.
Or does having a touchscreen require ALL monitors to be touchscreen (it might delete the visible cursor.)
Second, can I still use my touchscreen monitor with the cursor (as if it was just a standard monitor?)
Lastly, can I run a touchscreen on an old (4-8mb) video card? I can't imagine needing more than 800x600 \ 16 bit. This will be a smaller monitor and really just used for a launch pad.
Anyway, thanks for the (future) help and I look forward to stopping by (once ASUS decides its time to mail the box!)
