Hi all, i have jsut installed my touchscreen in my car and everythings owrks fine bar a few minor probs one of which is that everytime i turn on the computer in my car i have to unplug and then plug in the usb connector from the monitor into the pc/usb extension cable.
As soon as i plug it in again it works fine but once computer turns off and is turned back on the touchscreen does not work at all.

The odd times when i have turned it back on if i kept touching on the screen it would beep once and indicate a touch but not where i actually pressed and then that was it.

As soon as i re-seat the connector all is fine.

I have no idea why but i'd like the sorted asap as my connector is right under my centre console so i have to take it all apart again to get touchscreen working each itme i start the car!

is it connected via a hub or directly.

It is connected to a 3m extension lead which is connected directly to the motherboard

Shouldn't be a problem, that's how mine is connected and I have no such issues.

Is the touchscreen not recognized by windows or does it just not work?

After much searching i believe the prob is the same as what a lot of people were having, which is that when windows awakes fom hibernation the USB devices do not.
I read about devcon etc but im not keep on the idea of adding something to my start up for fear of it slowing up the start up process.

Also i have no knowledge of coding and so therefore im not sure i would be able to use it.

Is there no alternative solution anyone has found to this prob?
IE a patch for windows or for the motherboard drivers.

As in my house my pc running XP SP2 (same as car) has no probs resuming from hibernation with USB device functionality.
