touchscreen edge not responsive workaround

so my touchscreem doesnt work near the edges...about 1cm around the outside of the screen area. I know a lot of people have this problem too....was there ever a workaround for this problem? Or no?

I found that after doing the 25 point calibration (had to run the touchkit.exe from the windows nt drivers as i was using the dodgy ones that came with my Lilliput) it seems to be perfect almost right to the edge. I can press the buttons on the edges of the screen in MediaCar with my fingers easily. Only a few millimetres around the edge are useless for me.

Hope this helps you

My workaround, do the 25 point calibration and cheat around the edges, usually just the right edge in my case. Basically I miss the target to the left about 1/8" or so.
