Re: Input Panel

Dave, is there an Event ID attached to the Service Control Manager episode?
It would be helpful to know what is generating this issue.

Re: Input Panel

I think I have the same problem...try launching and closing the 'get going
with tablet pc' tutorial...that's how I can get mine to launch. Then I run
into another problem with tabtip.exe crashing. But see if you can at least
get it on screen.

Re: Input Panel

Thanks for the suggestions guys....

The event id is 7023. following the link that Jan gave, I've found the dll
and sys files and moved them as suggested - the Human Interface Device
service now starts.

I've also tried lanching and closing the "getting going" tutorial and guess
what....none of these things have made any difference!! TIP refuses to come
up....aaaaargh!!

Re: Input Panel

Dave, I've forwarded the error message from earlier today and now await
Microsoft's response. I'll post back when I hear something, though since it
is the weekend, I doubt we'll hear another until Monday at the earliest.

Re: Input Panel

Now here's an interesting thing...
I usually use an account on this machine that has Administrator privileges.
I just logged on through the proper "Administrator" account. This hadn't been
used before so it went through the usual "welcome to XP' stuff. What's
interesting is that I brought up a Windows Explorer while using the pen - and
the floating Input Panel icon appeared! It took me a while to get it to stay
long enough to click on but I was eventually able to bring it up, look at
options etc.

When I saved the options it crashed and I got an error written to the event
log saying that tabtip.exe had failed in module tipskins.dll. The version
numbers of both are 1.7.2600.2180.
Since then, I've rebooted and logged back into the Administrator account,
created a new user and logged on through my normal account - all to no avail,
the Input Panel still won't appear....sooooooo tantalisingly close!!!
