    I have a CF-19 mk4, all drivers installed as ordered, touchscreen calibrated, then 1 or just a few boot ups later, it loses the calibration, registers my touch input as a constant drag operation where (As if I was pressing left click) and all around acts wonky. I pulled out the disk, performed a full format, re-installed the image and it was working correctly as it did during the first set-up.

    I am not entirely sure what causes this. Has anyone stumbled upon this problem before?
    Thanks

    Of course, it's a known problem. Use forum search (should be a first step) and replace the touchscreen panel.

    Happened to me many times before, not just the CF-19. I shut it down, restarted and go into the bios, load default settings, save and restart. Sometimes that works but a lot of the times it's just as easy to use the recovery disk to reinstall windows than spend hours trying to fix it.
