my father came back from Canda and brought me a Gateway CX2620. The pen is not working.
The computer is new, even with plastic films. NOT broken, not dropped, etc.
I started it. First it WAS working, but i could only "point" with it. I mean to move the mouse. I COULD not click or double click. then in a while it stopped working completely.

The problem is there is no way to get it to warranty or to get it back. I live in Ukraine, thats REALLY far, and i even have no possibility to receive another pe by mail.

so am asking for help here. maybe someone knows anything....
my thoughts: maybe no driver installed (however its new), maybe driver damaged and so on.
is there anything to be done with the pen? maybe i could open it, do something.
is there ANY way to replace it with something (ANYTHING, even it it would not fin in the pen hole). anyway, fingers and pocket pc stylus obviously not working.

any ideas, or i really need to replace it?

THANX A LOT
