Installing the Windows 7 operating system 350 rub.

The numerous number of users do not get used to the new interface of the new Windows operating systems. Many who want after purchasing a laptop on Windows 8 to establish yourself old versionSince the familiar interface and convenience for many above all. But not on all laptops can be installed Windows 7, the developers intend to block in Bios this feature, just if you decide to install a seven on a laptop with a touch screen, then you need to check everything carefully before that. So to speak, make sure that after installing the operating system, you can easily and easily find, and install for example, on touch screenAfter all, without a special driver, it will not work as it should be.

Creating a computer driver backup, before installing Windows

To start the procedure, we will need to make backup drivers, suddenly they will be compatible with our Windows 7. We make a copy of the drivers using Sam Drivers, it is in the Driver Pack.
We launch Driver Pack and go to the backup section. Now you need to make a copy of your drivers, it will also simplify installing Windows 7 on your laptop. Saving a copy of the driver make on a separate disk or removable flash drive.
If you do not want to use third-party programsYou can then download this driver from the manufacturer's website, perhaps it is under Windows 7 there will be no, but you can try to download from Windows 8, usually back compatible. You will be offered to download the driver for x86 or x64 to download, both versions are different and compatible only with a certain system bit.

Installing OS on a touchpad laptop

Windows can be installed both from the disk and from the flash drive. The image image is recorded using special programsIn our case, we used Ultraiso. Record the image on the drive and at the end of the process we reboot the system. We go to your BIOS Computer And in the settings, set the download from our drive, if you can change the priority of the download, then you don't need anything in the BIOS.
After downloading the installation file of the system, you will be offered several options, choose full settingSince in our case the system update will not affect not as. As soon as the choice comes hard diskwhere installation will be made, pay attention to the sections less than 300 MB they can be deleted, and you can also delete that partition with the previous operating system. Next you need to create a new, create and format.
After confirming the Next button, the installation process will begin, we expect the end and reboot the laptop. We go back to the BIOS and exhibit the load priority was now from the disk, but if you use other functions, you can skip this step. After downloading from the disk you will continue to install and final configuration system.

Installing the necessary drivers on a laptop

After the installation has been completed and you are on the desktop, use the Driver Pack Solution utility to install device drivers.

Also, if you have any difficulties in installing the operating room windows systems Alone, our masters will gladly fulfill this work.

Choosing Monoblock.

Sensory Monoblock Screens - Types, Settings, Faults

A monoblock computer screen is one of its main advantages. The size of the All-in-One PC screens varies from 15 to the impressive 27 inches, and are able to meet the needs of any user. If you have chosen a monoblock as a means for entertainment and games Size and screen quality plays a crucial role, for you the perfect candidate will be powerful game monoblocks with large screens and high characteristics of matrices. For business and unassuming users, cars are suitable with medium diagonal (17-20 inches) and medium parameters of matrices, no need to overpay for the fact that you do not need and a big eye difference still not noticeable.

Synthesizer on a monoblock computer screen, play?

A large touchscreen is the fact that it allocates computers Monoblocks among other large electronics, and if the touch screen is in mobile devices became the thing for us is familiar for us for large screens Sensory technology is a novelty. Other names that are used to designate the touchscreen: Touch Screen, Touch Panel, touchpad.

What a touch screen is needed

First of all, the sensor is a means of controlling the interface, many operations managed to simplify or reduce the number of actions due to the sensory control. Sensory control is convenient and visuality, intuitively understandable, manage programs has become easier, more multimedia features appeared.

For the gaming industry, the touch screen is just a find, these are new directions and types of games, a greater immersion in the gameplay, large interactivity. While the games for the sensor are not so much, but active work in this direction is undoubtedly conducted.

What type of screen is better?

The best picture of the picture and the viewing corners will be the screen on the IPS matrix, when viewed above and below, at an angle, the color is not distorted, only a little contrast falls, black looks deep, dark, white also does not have extraneous shades. On the matrices of another type of PVA or MVA, you can also achieve almost the same quality as on IPS matrices. More simple screens, at large viewing angles, the contrast loses the contrast and juiciness of the picture, but on the other hand we look at the screen almost always directly, in this case the picture is good, and the price of monoblocks with such types of matrices is lower. It is worth thinking, but is it worth overpaying?

Typically, the characteristics of the monoblock does not indicate the type of the matrix and it is possible to determine its quality only to the eye or in comparison with other devices that are known screens parameters, such as monitors or laptops. Also, the screens are glossy and matte, the first give glare from lighting, especially in the sun, the matte is not glare, but they are much less common than glossy, for some reason producers mainly produce monoblocks with a gloss, the reason remains a mystery. If there is a choice, of course, take a monoblock with a matte screen.

How to enable / disable touch screen on monoblock

There are situations when you need to turn off the sensor on the monoblock screen, how to do this see the instructions below.

In order to disable the touch screen, use the standard settings in Windows. Click "Start"\u003e "Control Panel"\u003e Select "View by Category"\u003e Pen and Touch Enter. In the dialog box that opens, select the Touch tab. To disable the touch screen, remove a tick with "Use a finger as an input device", to turn on, check the box in the same paragraph and click "OK" to confirm with saving the operation.

Use your finger as an input device

Unfortunately in Windows 8, no settings for disconnecting the touch screen, but you can turn it off by another way. Go to "Device Manager"\u003e "HID"\u003e "HID-compatible touch screen", click right-click Mouse and choose "Disable". In the disconnection dialog box, choose "Yes".

HID-compatible touch screen, disable

In this way, you can turn off or turn on the touch screen not only on the monoblock, but also on other devices running Windows, such as laptops with a touch screen or tablets.

Use a monoblock as a monitor

In some cases, such as connecting the gaming console, system Block, laptop or just need a second monitor, there is a need to use a monoblock computer as a monitor, the question occurs if the AIO can work as a display and if so, how to do it?

Yes, you can connect the monoblock as a monitor if the monoblock has an HDMI input (HDMI-IN). Connection diagram using hDMI cable Elementary: The cable from the system unit comes out of the HDMI port port and connects to the monoblock to the HDMI input port. Next, all-in-one pc We switch to the signal receiver mode, must be special button or setting up. And all, you can enjoy a picture from an external source, simple and easy!

Make sure that the monoblock has a HDMI input port, otherwise connect it as a monitor will not work

Just remember that it will be the same way to consume electricity to the monoblock, that is, significantly more monitor comparable sizes and constantly use a full-fledged computer in the quality of the monitor at least impractical.

The monoblock display does not turn on, possible causes

The monoblock display does not turn on - a black screen, but the computer works, the noise of the fans is heard, the lights are burning, the discs are spinning, so you can describe the displays of the computer's monoblock. There may be a lot of reasons, consider the most possible of them.

• Problems are associated with the work of the computer video card, the video card does not work correctly, for example, the power wire or the map partially got out of the slot or does not work at all. Try to replace it with a new or proven working.
• It is possible in the failure or in the wrong BIOS computer. To solve the problem, you must perform a BIOS disk discount procedure, usually you must click on a specific keyboard shortcut when loading. Each manufacturer may have their own settings for this function, ask the official websites of companies.
• One more possible reason - Wire away from the depth card to the monoblock monoblock was left, so this or not can be defined only visually, disassembled the monoblock and thoroughly examine the wires.
• And the most unpleasant reason for the breakdown - the electronics of the matrix control broke, roughly speaking the screen itself covered, something happened to the matrix, there is only for repair to replace the microcircuit, it may help.
• It still happens that the monoblock shows white screenThere may be a case in a bad contact of the loop or its complete malfunction, or the case in the Matrix control electronics.

Screen cleaning and monoblock housing

Cleaning the computer of the monoblock computer, like all AIO PC in general should be carried out regularly. Since the monoblock components are laid in a small space, then in such a flap with dust contamination, problems with cooling the monoblock can be overheated, overheating of the processor and video card, will also heat the monoblock screen, which can lead to unstable work And even breakdown.

To clean the monoblock screen, such means as alcohol, other alcohol-containing agents, acetone, soda, windows cleaning agents, powder facilities, etc. cannot be used. It is best to use special means to care for monitors - gels, foams, aerosols, napkins with fillers that can be purchased in computer stores. The simplest and affordable means is a soap solution in warm water, wipe the display to them, then rinse with water and dry the dry cloth.

Cleaning the case can be divided into two stages, the first is a regular fast cleaning, just walk through the vacuum cleaner over all holes and slits, trying to suck everything that is possible. The second is general cleaning, disassemble rear cover Monoblock and also allowed everything carefully, to do it not often, once every six months a year. And do not forget in both cases wipe with a damp cloth.

Cleaning Monoblock

Touch screens in desktops seem rather entertainment than a full-fledged control system. FROM windows output 7 The situation may change. How simple the interface of a particular program can be judged by how quickly an inexperienced user is able to figure it out. If it does not need a lot of time for this, it means that control can be considered convenient. If you have to sit at the computer hour or more, clicking on various icons and wandering around the menu, then such a program is unlikely to become popular. Convenience of the PC depends on the manipulators used.

Small child can not quickly explain what computer mouse And how to use it. He will rather poke a finger in monitor And wait from the computer some reaction. Consequently, sensory control It is easier and natural to humans: it is perceived as direct and direct interaction with the information environment. However, only the sensory screen For this not enough - software Also need to be optimized accordingly.

Currently, the most suitable operating system for a computer with a touch-sensitive screen is Windows 7. Microsoft engineers have done a great job by adding new functionality And changing the existing components so that the user can interact with the PC the most natural way for it.

Windows 7 is optimized for finger control

Standard screen keyboard present in the previous windows versionsThe new OS is significantly better adapted for a set using fingers: the keys have become greater and the touch is highlighted. Added support for multiple simultaneous touchs for a more natural dialing and input of key combinations. In addition, Windows 7 has a built-in handwriting tool on different languages including Russian.

Touch screen is more convenient

The system recognizes even the most illegible letters and forms words from them by checking them along the built-in dictionary. In addition, there is a possibility handwriting input formulas The functions of the mouse in Windows 7 can also take on touch-sensitive Screen: To position the cursor, you just need to touch the display surface in the desired point. Support has been implemented in Windows 7 MultiTouch.—screens and gestures, as well as sensory scroll. For example, the breeding of two fingers to the parties allows you to increase the scale of the photo or document, and the reduction together is to reduce them. Finger gliding on the right left and in the opposite direction is used to navigate the browser and other programs supporting the implementation of the actions "Forward" and "Back". In addition, it is possible, for example, to include so-called editorial gestures - then the movements of the fingers on the diagonal will correspond to the copying, insertion, deletion, or cancellation functions. Long-term touch is equivalent to clicking the right mouse button and causes the context menu.

Task bar Also adapted to work with touchscreen: tabs in Windows 7 have the shape of the buttons that are convenient to press the fingers. If there are many applications of the same type open - for example, text files, such a touch starts previewing all documents and allows you to select the desired one.

Sensitive screens

Today, touch screens for PCs, made in the form of individual devices, are rare in retail. Most often they are part of monitors, notebooks or monoblock Different categories.

Is it worth paying extra for this new for the market personal computers option? The answer to this question depends on how your PC will be used. If it is planned to mainly work with texts, process audio and video files and solve other similar tasks, while it will be much easier to do this with mouse and keyboard. But if the computer is assumed to be used as a home multimedia center, as well as for surfing and communicating on the network, then the screen sensitive screen is able to significantly simplify the interaction with the system. Some will like the idea of \u200b\u200bplacing a PC in the kitchen, where for the keyboard and mouse may not be found.

The touch screen has long been successfully entered into the life of almost every resident on the planet. Of course, a primary role in this fact is given to smartphones and tablets, but also other spheres, with more highly specialized equipment, are not lagging behind modern trends. One of these areas is the industry. The most popular devices in the industrial segment equipped with a touch screen are of course panel computers and monitors. Most often, questions about the work of the touchscreen arise when it is used on these devices - how to connect? How to setup? How to calibrate? Etc. About this some more details, we will talk to you next.

How to connect?

In panel computers, as a rule, the touch screen controller is automatically determined by the operating system and does not require the installation of additional drivers. The only thing that is additionally required is to calibrate, but this is only when the touch screen is incorrect. For details on calibration, see below. Connection diagram of monitors is somewhat different. With each industrial monitor, equipped with a touch screen, always comes with an additional uSB cable or COM. This cable, you connect the monitor to the computer from which the video signal will be output. Next, the connection algorithm is similar to the option with a panel computer.

Consider an example of connecting the P6217WPC-24VDC-U monitor to the EBOX670-883-FL-DC embedded computer.

How to setup?

Under the setting it means the definition of the touch screen controller in the system and its subsequent successful work. As mentioned above, operating system automatically recognizes touchscreen, but what should I do if this did not happen? The first thing that you will need is the driver. In order to find or get required driversYou have several options:

• The drivers are present on the disk, which was included with the device.
• If the disk is lost, you can download drivers from the manufacturer of a panel computer or monitor, or if you know what exactly the touchscreen controller is installed in your hardware, such as AMT Penmount, you always have the opportunity to download the driver from the manufacturer of the controller.
• Contact service technical support IPC2U, writing in online chat or sending a letter to the address.

How to download from the manufacturer's site?

Each manufacturer has its own design of the site, respectively, a single algorithm of action will not be appropriate in this case. But, the location of the drivers is standardized, so you can always find the drivers in the "Downloads" section. The first thing you need to do is move to the page of your product on the manufacturer's website and then look for the Downloads tab.

The page of the panel computer on the manufacturer's website on the example of the model GOT-3177T-834 from Axiomtek

After switching or disclosure tab, you will see a list of all available drivers for drivers for this device. The driver for the touch screen is always easy to determine the name. It should include the word "touch". Sometimes all drivers are in one big archive. It is possible that you will also immediately be prompted to choose which OS you need a driver. You choose the necessary and the download process went.

A little different is the case when you want to download drivers from the manufacturer of the controller. Most often, manufacturers of industrial panel computers and monitors use controllers from two companies already mentioned AMT Penmount and Eeti. Drivers on the sites of these manufacturers are also in the "Downloads" tab. Go to it can be immediately with main page.

How to calibrate the touch screen?

You installed the drivers, the touch screen works, but you want to put the cursor in the upper left corner, and it moves to the bottom right, what to do? For such cases, there is only one single solution - the calibration of the touchscreen. Most often, the calibration utility can be found in one archive along with the drivers. Next, we will consider the touch screen calibration option using the example of one of the most popular APPC-1740T panel computer models from Nexcom.

During the calibration process, you need to click on the cursor points on the screen, following the instructions, i.e. Pressed the cursor, detained, let go, moved to the next point. All this will take you literally a couple of minutes. After completion, the calibration window will automatically close. Next, you can check whether it works correctly touchscreen or not. If yes, congratulations, you configured the operation of the touch screen! If not, contact IPC2U Technical Support.
