I was wondering if anyone on here has ever bought touchscreens from outside vendors to run a dual monitor touch screen system with HogPC. Last year I worked on setting up HogPC and an Obsession 600 linked together and controlled by SFX. My department has expressed interest in attempting to make the system better. I figured the WholeHog II used touch screens, so why not HogPC. Has anyone ever tried this or thought about this? If so, any recomendation for touch screen brands. Any issues with driver or system requirements. I'm not as worried about system requirements as my theatre is in the process of upgrading the computer running SFX and HogPC on it. Thanks for everyone's help, I look forward to any responces.
I have a complete HOG PC system and have been running Planar touch screen monitors with this system for almost 3 years now. They work also with Hog 3PC. Who ever is telling you only the ELO touch screens will operate is just trying to get you to go waste extra money. My monitors run on ELO drivers. $400.00 ea. Much better than the inflated ELO pricing. I run 3 monitors with no problems.
