Hi, I have a EBY701 that had been working perfectly until I took it off the car for making updates, and now, three months later, the touchscreen seems to stop working randomly. Once it stops, it doesnt work again until I turn off/disconnect and reconnect it. It just doesnt recognize touches nor movements, nothing.

Sometimes when I turn it off and on again, the power led starts flashing red and I get no response whatsoever in the screen or buttons. And sometimes it starts working ok again.

First thing I thought of is a cable problem, but I tested and retested it in a solid base with no movement at all and keeps failing. One clue I have for not disposing it into the garbage is that when I disconnect every other USB device (GPS and mouse) and leave only the screen, it seems not to fail. Then, if I connect the GPS, the TS probably fails after a while.

How could it be conflicting USBs? Never heard of sth like that. Also I have installed all the latest drivers for GPS (PL2303), TouchKit and motherb controllers (MSI K9N6SGM).

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Well I've just tested the same machine on another WinXP install and everything worked ok.. guess it's driver related or maybe microXP does not support the touchscreen very well.. could be its lack of "native" xp HID drivers..

I also have a Lilliput EBY701 and I have the same problem. I am using my monitor on a mac mini so I dont feel that the driver for xp is the issue, unless the driver for all platforms is flawed.

From what i've seen, it just seems to stop working. I had it working and then I did a software update several hours later that required reboot. When I came back up it stopped working but I dont think it was related to that update because it has shown this behavior since i've had it (only a few days). I let it sleep and wake it up with a mouse and it works. After that point I can wake it with screen touch. I have just come to the conclusion of bringing the mouse in the car.

Just when I lose hope for this screen, it wakes up from sleep with a tap. I really have no idea why this thing decides to stop.

hehehe i guess these screens have their own temperament..

now mine is working perfectly with the new XP install..

good luck with yours.
