Getting started with Windows 8 on your new touch-
enabled Monitor
We know this is a new operating system that will take some getting used to,
so we've created a few pointers to help you get started.
* Note: For the touchscreen & USB function to work, you need to connect the USB cable to the NB or PC, as
well as connecting through a VGA, DVI or HDMI cable.
How can I you wake up my PC using the touch panel?
When your PC is in Sleep mode, press any of the buttons on the side of the
screen -- EXCEPT the power button -- and then tap the touch panel.

The Charms bar is a context-sensitive area containing settings and other
useful functions.

How do I get to Start?
