The hardware is the touchpanel that comes with the 7 inch liliput.
The touchpanel works. But I reinstalled Windows XP Home. So obviously I'd have to reinstall the touch panel software.
So I did. But installing the software doesn't make the touch screen work.
What gives? I must be skipping a step. It's been 3 years since I did this last and I can't remember if there's any tricks to it.
The software that I tried to install was the TOUCH KIT software.
Is that the touchscreen controller with all the drivers and stuff, or is that just a program to customize how it works and calibrate it and what not?
Alright I fixed this problem, but I don't know why.
When I reinstalled Windows I didn't change any of the hardware. Everything was left plugged in where it was plugged in.
So after struggling with the touchscreen not working I switched my two USB cables at the computer to opposite USB ports. Immediately Windows recognized all the hardware it hadn't seen before.
Why is that? Why does switching ports make a difference sometimes?
