Hello Yakov. The unit comes with an installation CD which has the drivers. It's quite an easy install process. In my "original" setup, my laptop was display 1 and my other monitor attached to my VGA output was display 2. With this new unit attached to a USB port, I now have display 3. Yes, it will work. :)

Hi Thank you for your interest. This monitor doesn't have Mini displayport but Displayport. So you need Mini displayport to Displayport cable. And some cheap cable may not compatible with the monitor. Included cable is only DVI-D(dual link) cable. Thank you.

Mini-DisplayPort & "regular" DisplayPort use exactly the same signals, only the physical connector size is different. Therefore, only "passive" adapter is needed. An "active" adapter doesn't even exist.

No. I bought a Plugable USB 3.0 DisplayLink to go with mine, but beware of their free trial software Multiple Monitors; try not to use that cause you have to buy it after 30 days.

I don't see a USB connection on the monitor. I see a power connection, and few HDMIs. It is a good monitor. Buy it!

Yes I messed up and bent a pin in one of the connectors, so it wasn't the hardware for me, it was my own clumsiness. So you might want to take a look at the pins in your connectors. I read elsewhere that someone wasn't getting enough power to the camera and monitor and that's what caused the blue screen for them.

There is a VGA port and a HDMI Port.However I don't think that is a problem.It get four USB3.0 Ports and we can output display with USB3.0 to HDMI,DVI or VGA adapter.

Make sure you have the latest plug ins AND your Computer can handle it. My laptop is 2009. Every sooo often, the two external 27" monitors well freeze...But I just disconnect the usb cable from my laptop, plug it back in, and all is good.

Nice to meet you. The mini port to HDMI actually worked well for me...I only use for my projector but it gets the job done well. No problems at all thus far. Hope this helps.

If you can only display on an external monitor, then I'd call it DOA. Send it back for a replacement. Acer or Amazon should have you set. Just make sure you register the Acer on their website if you plan to get a new one from them.

No problem glad to help. Their website is undergoing maintenance I found out so that explains a lot I just went and checked had the same trouble. If for some reason you start up and get ready to fly and you see a blank screen on the multi panel just unplug the USB and plug it back in, I've had it happen to me. Have fun and if you have questions about any other of their devices let me know as I have them all and love them.

I didn't have this issue, and I own two of the monitors. It may be defective, and I would also wonder which model you have (there are some S230HL models that have two DVI ports, some with two HDMI ports) as some were manufactured at earlier points in time. Personally, I'd return it and see if it was just a fluke.

The 3 USB ports are not active at this time. A promise has been made, some time ago, that a future update will cure that. Many are doubtful they will ever be used. Recommend using the USB from any number of HDMI connected devices; and work around in that way.

I'm using it on a 2011 mini with a display port to HDMI adapter (thunderbolt port). (PNY A-DM-HD-W01 Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter).Using "Display Menu" app allowed access to a lot resolution options with 4K version of emulator.The HDMI port seemed to interfere with the FireWire disc for some reason. So I moved it to the adapter and it was stable. My understanding is that pre 2011 minis do not turn off the GPU when no monitor is connected. If with no monitor the cursor tails behind badly then the GPU is off.Hope this helps.

Thanks so much for your response. I'll go ahead and bust it out of the package and try it out. Trying to connect an extra monitor!! Lee
