The Tablet PC digitizer screen
doesn't respond to the plastic
stylus I use on my PDA.
I have the Tablet PC Input Panel
open, but a few seconds after I
write, my writing disappears.
The Motion Digitizer Pen tip
doesn't line up with the arrow-
cursor when I tap on the screen.
I sometimes unintentionally click
the Pen function button while I'm
writing with the Pen.
Screen resolution and/or color
quality are set incorrectly.
Display driver has become
corrupted or uninstalled.
You're using the wrong input
device.
You don't have an application or
word processing program open to
which the Input Panel can send
the ink message.
The pen and display need
recalibrating.
You're pressing the Pen button
with your thumb or finger when
you write or gripping the Pen too
tightly and accidentally pressing
the Pen button. This enables the
right-click function of the Pen.

you write on the Tablet display.
The Tablet PC doesn't respond to
other tablet pens or to a plastic
stylus.
Either open the Text Preview
window from the Tools menu on
the Input Panel, or open a word
processing program, such as
Microsoft Word, Notepad, or
Wordpad.
Double-tap the Tablet and Pen
Settings icon and select the Pen
Settings tab. Or select Calibrate
on the Motion Dashboard.
Try these hints:
• Readjust how you hold the Pen.
Place your fingers on either side
of the Pen function button when
you write.
• Practice using the Pen function
button with both your index fin-
ger and thumb to see which
you prefer.
• Relax your grip. Only a light
touch is needed to write with
the Pen.
• Deactivate the Pen right-click
function through Tablet and Pen
Settings. Instead, press and
hold the Pen to the display sur-
face to right-click.
