Tapping with stylus doesn’t start program or activate feature

If you find that nothing is happening when you tap on an icon, remember that you have to tap twice on a program icon to start the application. If the application still doesn’t open, or if tapping once on a feature or program menu doesn’t do anything, your touch screen calibration may be off. This can happen if you make a mistake when calibrating the touch screen.

You can correct this by activating Stylus calibration in the Control Panel. Normally you would open this by tapping on (Start) and Settings to go to the Control Panel, and then tapping on Stylus. But if your calibration is off, you may not be able to do this. An alternative way to start the calibration procedure is to hold down (CTRL) and (ALT) and press (=).

Follow the screen instructions to re-calibrate your touch screen. Press (ESC) to cancel the calibration.
