So I "optimized" my services and it somehow killed my usb gps and touchscreen abilities.

Went back through and set services to default settings....still not functioning

Help PLease

And that is why you shouldn't go messing around in services unless you're 100% certain of what you're doing.

First off... What OS are you using? NT? 2000? XP? Vista?

You probably killed a service that controls USB, and the touchscreen is USB, right? After you set all the services back to their defualt settings, did you restart those services and/or reboot the computer afterward? The services aren't going to automatically restart when you set them back to "automatic".

As a last resort, you could re-install Windoze. That would suck, but you can chalk it up to lessons learned.

HID Service or Human Interface Devices is more than likely turned off.

Also look at Plug In Play

I know this is a somewhat old post but these are the common culprits of that
