I use HP Pavilion tx1000 Tablet PC, with Vista Home premium.
I disabled the touch screen a year back in control panel (not sure where
exactly)
Now i want to enable it again.
I have already:
1. reinstalled the OS
2. reinstalled and updated the Video drivers
3. Checked Administrator Tools\services\Tablet PC Input Services - (it is
"automatic" and "started")
4. Checked device manager - (there are no hardware with red or yellow icons)
5. Spoke to HP service center a couple of times, but they want me to visit
their center. the nearest service center is not in my city and they work in
weekdays only.

Can someone help me?

is it possible to attach screenshots in this forum?

update:

I found in system information:

wacompen has following config:
Start Mode: Disabled
Started: No
State: Stopped

how to enable it??

Is it a service that is stopped? You can either go into the services, or
start/run and type in MSCONFIG

If you use msconfig, go to the services tab and look for the one you listed,
if it is a service, it will be unchecked. Put a checkbox in it and reboot.

If you go into services directly, you can right click the MY COMPUTER icon,
select manage. On left side, go to "services and applications" and expand it,
click on services, and on the right side look for the service you showed
disabled. You can right click and select Properties or just double click it,
and change the startup type to Automatic. Apply, then you can either reboot
or click START. I'd reboot since it may need to be initialized at the startup
of the PC to work properly.

After my post, took a quick look at device manager, services and
msconfig and could not find anything other than an entry in the HID
section that did not spell anything the way you posted it plus it
offered no disable options.

Would recommend a search of the registry for "wacompen" which might
yield something to point to where that term is used. On my tablet, it is in

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\E ventlog\System and a
number of keys below that, but I did not see anything obvious in the
services interface.
