ALL PORTED OUT

Hello, I am not sure if this is where I should be posting but here goes.  I have a home build flight simulator with motion.  My flight sim has a TH2go for forward view and two other monitors for gauges or what ever.  I am running a home built auto pilot, dual throttle control,radio, Rudders,Yoke,keyboard and mouse on all my 2.0 usb connectors through my main computer (see attachment).  this all works however I recently connected a 10 in touch screen monitor, usb powered, for ATC, it worked but I could not move gauges from main screen to another and have them working.  So my question is, if I were to purchase a 12 port Multi TT USB Hub, would that improve my port problems?  It is pretty spendy so I would kind of like to know before I purchase.

DON"T KNOW HOW TO UP LOAD FROM THIS SCREEN SO NO PICTURES

Thanks

Terry

I wonder what you mean by "USB powered". If you mean it is a VGA emulation running on a USB port then good luck. I never had any success with those things, which in my approximate understanding must rely on a some kind of DirectX implementation in the monitor. Your problem may well be connected to this. You'd be better off getting a 10" VGA monitor and another cheap graphics card to hang it on. That's old technology and hence is much more likely to work straight out of the box.

P.S. You can't upload pictures, you have to put them somewhere else and link to them. Try imgur.com.

Thank you Mark for the reply.  You are probably right on with what you are saying.  USB powered is what this monitor is .  Plug the cord into a USB port on your computer and it gets it's driver from  the Display Link  program I downloaded.  I was hoping that a Multi TT USB HUB would take care of my port problem but I am not sure of that.  The monitor is a Mimo VUE HD  Mold# UM-1080C-G, USB Captive Touch Screen.

 

I still can't understand how to post pictures.

 

Thanks again
