| Re: Pen keeps writing when not touching the tablet. Could very well be a battery, John, but I don't know how long they last. Glad you like (or is it love?) your Tablet. 8-) You might try recalibrating the pen in Control Panel/Tablet and Pen Settings. You might also check the downloads here: http://h20180.www2.hp.com/apps/Looku...x=6&submit.y=7 There is a System Enhancements Disk for Windows XP (SP2) and a Tablet PC Change Mode Service update - both from September, 2004. -- Chris H.

| Pen keeps writing when not touching the tablet. John Have seen this before on one of our TC1000's. It's the nib in the pen sticking so it permanently thinks its touching the screen. A little bit of gentle fiddling sometimes helps, but otherwise its a new pen I'm afraid. Battery lasts 18 months - 2 years Shaun >-----Original Message----- >Has any one ever had this problem.

Had to do that for the tablet im using. Pen would get close screen then start to write, got a replacement pen from HP under warranty. -- Robb '97 Firestorm |

| Re: Pen keeps writing when not touching the tablet. Thanks guys - it is intermittent and the tc1000 came with an extra tip (nib?) so I'll try that before ordering a new pen-thanks again.
