[jOrgan-user] Multiple Touchscreens

[Bill S. <sk...@sp...>]

Hi Graham,

This procedure should be helpful to others as touch screens become more popular.

May I include your directions in the Beginners Guide?

Thanks,
Bill

Hi Brian
My monitors use Touchkit drivers, but I had the same kind of problems when I 
first installed them, so the same principle may apply:

The following assumes you have already set up your monitors in Control Panel 
(or with your Graphics Card software) as "Extended Desktop".

I suggest you uninstall the touch-screen drivers etc. then re-boot and start 
afresh by installing the drivers again

The secret is to set up one screen at a time.

1. Launch the (Touchkit = eGalaxy) applet

2. Assuming you are now presented with two identical screen icons, avoid 
further confusion by re-naming one icon "Left Screen" and the other icon 
"Right Screen"

3. Select Left Screen and go through the set-up and calibration routine for 
the left hand monitor. (If the Left Screen icon selects the right hand 
monitor, simply rename the icons correctly)

4. Close the applet. (To make doubly sure, I actually shut my PC and 
re-booted)

5. Re-launch the (Touchkit = eGalaxy) applet

6. Select Right Screen and go through the set-up and calibration routine for 
the Right Hand monitor

7. Re-boot

Both monitors should now function OK
