I have got the AirDisplay app on my iPad, and will download the same for the PC tonight. I have downloaded TB, the TB tool kit, and your profile. What do I do next?

Never used Air Display. Never used TB in a standalone configuration (as previously mentioned, mine was a server/client config). However, at a guess, try the following.

1. At the moment, you don't need the TB Toolkit.
2. Unzip (if not already) TB, and put it on C:\
3. Right Click the TB Icon and create a shortcut - put this on your desktop.
3. Open C:\Touchbuddy\Profiles and from my profile copy and paste the following folders: Background Tabs, CoD_Map, FRAPS Switches, Instrument Switches, View Switches. Also copy/paste the CoD_Hurricane.tbc file.
4. If you want to substitute my map for your own at this stage. Replace my map CoD from the CoD_Map folder, rename yours (CoD) and paste it in.
4. Run Air Display
5. Run TB (Local)
6. Load my Hurricane profile. Then drag the TB window to your 2nd monitor using Air Display.
7. Bobs your Aunty - this should work.

I forgot to add. Remember to change your Controls Page to the ones I have specified in the ReadMe. Otherwise when you press Gear Down (for example) nothing will happen!

Buccaneer,

I'll give this a try tonight, and let you know if smoke starts coming out of my computer.

Thanks,

Guys,
I'm about to try to install TB on my new i7 3770 3rd gen and a tablet PC for touch controls. But I am currently using all four outputs from the GTX 680 for 6 screens, 3 over 3 at 3840 X 2048. Will I need to run in client/server mode? I can't run in local because I don't have a screen to use from the vid card. Is this a correct understanding? I'm a total noob at TB. Thanks for any input.
