Some experiments we run use touch-screens. I've been told that there is a timing problem - recording reaction times is not very accurate, as was determined in 2002 when we first got the screens.

We've had e-prime 1 and are upgrading to e-prime 2.0. The touch-screens we have now are MicroTouch 3M from 2002 and they run on Serial Ports.

Have you had timing problems as well? I need to purchase new machines that would not have this problem - any suggestions on models to buy?

I've been told that getting screens with USB connections could affect timing? Thoughts?

Thank-you in advance for all your help.

I'm also looking for a touch screen and have similar concerns. I assume I will have to make some compromises but I would like to get the best timing accuracy that I can. There seem to be a number of people using touch screens with E-Prime, and more interested in trying, so it would be really good to evaluate experience and options.

Thanks!
