Tablet as second monitor

Not sure if this is the right place to post the thread so could a mod please move me if there is anywhere i should be

 

So I have now got control of my pc from my tablet from anywhere in the house, but i would like to make the tablet a second monitor, and to do this i think i need to make windows detect two monitors then extend the display and make my tablet display that screen. anyone know how to make windows think it has two screens?

 

you know i've been thinking about a similar thing. i have an old iphone 3g and i want to use it as a system monitor built into my case.

found this but you have to pay :\

you know i actually have several old android phones i could use instead..

I already have the app for my tablet its just for windows that i need two have a virtual display detected, i like this app because i can control my PC from anywhere in the house

What Motherboard do you have? I have a Asus Z87 and with the Asus Wfif GO! App I can use my phone as a second monitor. It works best, if you are really close to your wifi. The App is available for Android and Ios.

Why not just use RealVNC?

But does that let me use my tablet as a second screen or does it just show my screen and let me control it. because i want it as a second screen to play videos and stuff on while im doing something else

there's a way on win 7, at least, as I did that.
ok, so go to where you adjust the resolution of the screen, press detect, you should have more screens that pop up saying "other undetected display", click on one, to the right of "multiple displays" it should have a drop down menu on " no display detected", click on it and change to "try to connect anyway on : whatever", press apply, now on "multiple displays" select "extend displays", and apply again, now you can adjust to whatever size you want the tablet display to be, and click ok, now just select that screen on whatever software you're using (personally, I use splashtop, which works great on games with not that much latency)

I have seen many people say this but when I press detect for a new display it does not show a new one

if the app dosn't work.

I imagine you'd need to way to make your tablet emulate a WiDi display. then mod a diver for an existing tv in windows and hope it works.

or

you can try hacking a usb tv tuner card with hdmi to work with your tablet and then assuming you have a relatively recent dedicated gpu you could get a dual display dvi out adapter for it and maybe get it to work that way.

either way it's a lot easier to set-up a remote desktop or shared folders.

Windows can only scale its GUI in a few zoom factors, not stepless and free. That makes it very hard to use a tablet as second screen with any degree of efficiency. It already makes it hard to make Windows look good and be efficient on a modern high resolution monitor all by itself. So not sure if you really want to use a tablet as second monitor, but if you do, you could just use splashtop, install a third party app that adds routable virtual desktop functionality to Windows (not sure what it is, but I do remember that it exists, at least it existed for Windows Vista and XP and it was freeware, but you have to find this program, because Windows doesn't provide this functionality by itself). Then you link the virtual desktop of your choice to the splashtop application, which streams it to your tablet.

If it's for productivity though, I would strongly advise using linux instead of Windows. Linux has a steplessly and freely scalable GUI, and natively offers virtual desktop functionality in all open source DE's (of which there are plenty to choose from), and you can configure splashtop to act as an extended desktop or a second dekstop, and align the pixels for mouse movement continuity, with an easy to use GUI in just seconds.

I made the mistake of asking for a Kindle Fire a few years ago, is there anyway I can use that as an auxiliary monitor for my Windows 7 machine via usb? I don't have a wireless router and I do not intend to get one. I'm also not aware of any apps that can do this for the Kindle Fire.

You can use Air display. Works with ios and andriod. It isn't free.
