    Hey there gents and ladies!

    First of all, Im new here, but I having been reading threads on this forum for the last 2 weeks trying to solve my problem, but it is now time to ask. So here it goes!

    I have a CF-18 MKIII and I love it. Unfortunately I picked up a virus, and decided to reinstall my OS, only to find that my recovery discs don't work, so I decided to install Vista Ultimate, and thats where all the fun started. :rolleyes:

    I have all the drivers I need, and I have even managed to get the touchscreen going (non-digitizer) and vista runs without any problems at a reasonable speed.

    Now you might ask what the problem is. Well, I can't seem to calibrate the touchscreen! I have tried the windows calibration tool, and then I get a happy message that it only calibrates digitizer screens. :mad: (Typical for Windows really.) And so when I use the touchscreen, its offset by a half inch.

    So my question is this:

    Is there any way to calibrate a non-digitizer touchscreen in Vista? Is there some type of third party software which I can download?

    I appreciate any help given on this as Im about ready to go insane.

    Model Number of Toughbook:

    CF-18DHB22KA

    ItÂ’s in the driver folder that you downloaded for the mouse
    FPS cal is the name and you will have to manually click on it from the utilities/drivers mouse folder
    Btw ; Welcome new forum member from New Zealand :)
