Installing 3M™ MicroTouch™ Software

Remember that Windows™ 7 does not require any additional software to enable multitouch functionality.

However, for Windows™ XP, Vista or Linux® operating systems, 3M™ MicroTouch™ Software enables your M2256PW Multi-touch Display to work with your computer. 3M™ MicroTouch™ Software includes a control panel for setting your touch sensor preferences and a diagnostic utility. If you are experiencing problems with the touch sensor, you can use the diagnostic utilities provided to test the system.

For more information on installing this software and using the control panel, refer to the 3M™ MicroTouch™ Software User Guide on the accompanying CD or on the corporate website at www.3m.com/touch.
