How do you take advantage of the touch capabilities? I have one with Win 7 and it seems useless!

As I said, Windows 7 wasn't really designed for touch interfacing so it will never be perfect. I found it had some use, but your mileage may vary. Windows 8 should run ok on that machine. You could consider upgrading. it was designed for touch from the start. Still may not be what you're looking for though. If you want something that can best be able to take advantage ot touch, I would suggest some form of tablet (iPad, Android, etc)

I haven't owned one of these for years, but I recall the touch screen working just fine. Windows 7 wasn't really designed for touch interaction so it will never be perfect. But if it's not working at all, that's another issue. My guess would be that you need to install a driver. That should be fairly easy to find on Dell's website. Of course, there may be a physical hardware issue as well Impossible to guess at this end. Best of luck with it. It is a neat little machine.

Touch capabilities are a pain use with this laptop, which is why I don't even bother to use the feature.

Haven't used it in awhile, but if you use it in the "tablet" mode and not with the keyboard, it worked OK on "touch" scanning pics, games, etc. I don't think it worked when you had it configured like a laptop...

No idea. I've only used it on win 7. There's really no reason it shouldn't work on win 8, but it isn't a touch-enabled app if you were wondering. You could try asking their online support people. They usually get around to answering you, although it may take a few days.

I tried it. It works...but. It's a beta and not ready for prime-time. Looks like it will be more touch friendly. If your comfortable with loading operating systems, try it for the weekend. You can always go back. I did and I'm not a real tech savvy.

No, this model does NOT have touch screen. It is running on Windows 7 which is exactly why I bought it. I did not want to use Windows 8.

I'm not a fan of Windows 8, but when used with a touchscreen (which it was designed for) it works well. You can load 7, but expect some difficulty.

If your computer has a usb port, analog audio out port and an HDMI/DisplayPort/DVI port, you should be able to hook it up and use it to the extant that Windows 7 supports touch.

if using an sd card just insert and use the menu on back, you also can use the touch screen controls on the front screen surface. hope this works. more detail on medium being used would be helpful or step that you are at!

I had the same issue and what I was told was that Windows 7 was not really built to be touch screen. I used the keyboard doc before my tablet became a bookmark and loved it. I would suggest either upgrading to Windows 8 or investing in a keyboard.

Nope sorry. And you really need a mouse I've found. The touch pad really doesn't cut it with windows 8.

no it's not :( but I've heard many say that the Windows 8 layout was designed with touch screen tablets in mind. too bad you can't.....actually....touch....the.....screen lol

no--but, you can buy a $5 app that will make it behave more like W7. This, imo, should only be sold w/touchscreen. Get an app.

No it's not touchscreen, but it's Windows 8 and an amazing purchase! Does that help?

There are blogs in google land that show you what drivers to download to get your One Touch 111 to work in W7 64 bit.....tryhttp://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/maxtor-one-touch-iii-mini-driver-for-windows-7/d3311f77-8b6e-4aec-9924-8679dd957649

I just installed it yesterday, and it seems to be working great so far...I think my computer is even a little faster now. All the touch stuff seems to work...but you have to install a windows update before you can use the touchscreen. One thing to know is that all the Touchsmart applications get removed during the upgrade, which I didn't care about, but you or others might.

This device is not touch capable, it's a low resolution second screen. Acer and Dell both make great touch enabled monitors. good luck
