Questionwill it work with a non-touch equiped laptop?Will this touch screen function if I use it with a standard laptop that does not have a touch screen? The laptop has windows 7.
Asked 10 years ago by rrich.
- Answer Yes it will work. The touch feature works with a usb cable that goes to your laptop. If you are planning to use it as a screen extension the touch won't work. The touch features will work on your main screen only

Questiondose it work on mac pro???hi i just got a mac pro but i did not get a monitor for it can i use this monitor for my mac pro (not macbook pro) i know that the touch wont work on mac but other than that will it display and work ok ?? and if if dose work do i need a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter to connect it on the mac pro???
Asked 11 years ago by blue.
- Answer Hello, Thank you for your interest in the S2240T monitor! I see no reason why this monitor would not work with your Mac Pro computer. Monitor connections all use the same standards of technology, so they will work with any computer. Naturally, Dell does not guarantee that every feature and function of the monitor will work flawlessly. I recommend using the DVI-I if you can, since it gives a perfect digital picture vs VGA. Hope this helps! JonathanNforDell

QuestionTouch doesn't work with HDMI, monitor doesn't work with USBI bought this to add to my Dell inspiron Windows 8.1 touch laptop so I could have a larger touch interface. If I plug it in with the HDMI it serves as a normal second monitor without touch function. When I try to use the USB cable the monitor is never detected by the computer. It does initially do the "installing device" window but nothing happens. The CD that came with the monitor only detects the monitor when it's connected by HDMI. I was told this would work with a touch laptop but it isn't. Really dissapointed.

- Answer You have to connect both at the same time. The HDMI is to mirror your screen, while the USB is for touch.

QuestionConnectionCan I daisy chain 3 of these or connect 3 in some way to one laptop and have 3 different things on a screen or divide it up
Asked 11 years ago by Avjr1974.
- Answer Hello, Thank you for your interest in the S2240T 21.5" touchscreen monitor! As it turns out, the only current way to "chain" monitors is by using DisplayPort v1.2 (or Thunderbolt) connections between the monitors. Also, the monitors have to have two DP or Thunderbolt ports on each, in order to allow for chaining. This is not currently a very viable option but will become more commonplace when the next few generation's monitors come out. This monitor does not have DP or Thunderbolt ports. Most laptops have two video out ports, which allow for two external displays or one external display + the laptop screen. I do not believe any laptop Dell makes supports three monitors at this time. Hope this helps! JonathanNforDell

QuestionCapabilities?Can this be used on split screen setting with windows 7 pro?
Asked 11 years ago by chiro.
- Answer Hello, Thank you for your interest in the S2240T touch-enabled monitor. Yes, the Windows 7 split-screen feature is a feature of the Windows software and the hardware (monitor) in this case does not matter. You control the windows layout by using the Windows Key + the Up, Down, Left, or Right arrows on the keyboard. Hope this helps! JonathanNforDell

QuestionWill the touch feature work with a NVR?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The monitor can be used to connect with an NVR for viewing if your NVR has HDMI output. However, touch capability not only requires a touch capable monitor but an operating system that supports touch. I doubt of the system in an NVR supports touch, but you can check with the manufacturer, etc.

Questionwill touch functions work on a macCan I use this as a touch monitor on a mac running OSX 10.8.3 without a driver? If it requires a driver, is that awful touch-base driver?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Only as a monitor but not for touch capability. Touch requires not only a touch capable monitor but also an operating system that supports touch and currently Mac OS X does not.

QuestionInclude stand?Does purchase of this monitor include the stand shown in picture?
Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer The stand comes already attached to the monitor but is removable. The monitor can be wall mounted once the stand is detached from the monitor (requires the removal of two screws). The stand is metal (aluminum I assume) and is sturdy and the one I have seen in photos of the monitor.

QuestionAuto Select inputIf I have this hooked up through hdmi and vga at the same time is it possible to have the monitor prefer or auto select vga over the hdmi input if both inputs are receiving a signal? I currently have this hooked up to my tv and this monitor and use it for an HTPC. It outputs to both tv and monitor at the same time. I also have a second computer that it is hooked up to through VGA. When I want to use the VGA port I don't want to have to go into the menu to switch or turn off the signal from the HTPC.

QuestionWhy is touch not working with my MacBook Pro, OSX 10.9?My S2240T displays nicely as a second monitor for my MacBook Pro, however touch is not working — it might as well be a much cheaper, non-touch screen. The included Drivers and Documentation disc does not include a Mac driver, nor does the 100+ page manual mention "Apple" or "Mac" even once. Does Dell not support Mac? Or even acknowledge its existence?
Asked 11 years ago by Phil.
- Answer Not made for OSX. Dell and Apple are rivals in the computer industry. Neither would ever make a product for each other.
