1. Tablet Pc Components

I'm the owner of an HP Pavillion tx2120us tablet PC, which has a known problem of making the cursor jump to the lower right corner of the screen.

I've narrowed the problem down to the pen tablet function, since in Vista I was able to turn the tablet input process down, and the problem seemed to go away. It was a simple matter of just opening the task admin and killing the process.

However, as far as I can tell, I can't find the same process in Windows 7, and I have supposedly already turned the tablet functions via 'Start' -> 'Control Panel' > 'Programs and Features' > 'Turn Windows features on or off'. Yet after a reboot the screen still seems to react to the tablet pen.

How can I finally turn the darned tablet functions off (while still being able to re-enable them in the future)?

EDIT: I have also turned the service off and restarting, as suggested by outsideblasts, to no avail.

Go to Services (just windows search it) and see what the status is. Set it to manual or disabled. If it already is disabled then I don't know!

If you go to 'Control Panel' > 'Programs and Features' > 'Turn Windows features on or off', You can remove the Tablet PC Components.

I know this isn't as easy to turn on later - however, all Windows Vista/7 setup files are stored on your machine, so it should be quick and easy to re-enable at a later date.

You can also turn off the 'Tablet PC Components' feature at the command line, by running:

Finally, I found a way! It was a bit elaborate, but it works!

1. I went to get the wacom driver for tablet PCs, downloaded the driver and installed it.
2. I opened the task manager (right-click on the task bad on the bottom of the screen -> Task Manager)
3. I selected the processes tab, and clicked on Show all user processes (I'm roughly translating this from spanish, so this might not be the exact wording) in the bottom left button.
4. Then looked for both Pen_tablet.exe processes, right-clicked them and selected terminate process (again a rough translation from spanish).

And now the screen does not react to the pen. Free at last!

NOTE: This should apply to all tx2000 and tx2500 series out there, for which the heating causes so many issues.

I've got an HP tablet computer from around 2005 ish.

I can't find the install CD anywhere. So, I have an MSDN license, I grabbed the MSDN Windows XP Tablet Edition 2005 (CD's 1 and 2).

CD 1 is more or less, Windows XP Pro. Install was fine.

CD 2 has the Tablet PC and Media Centre components.

I Have no idea how to install the Tablet PC components. There's no setup or installer or bat.

Thank you for quick reply (and thorough testing with these 003 verbs, I have read the burning guide topics on other forums that mention your name and they have saved me a ton of hassle with all the basic settings, giving time to concentrate on these strange ones instead. OK, long story short, I am trying to burn backups of my Xbox 360 games with following specs, burning completes successfully, but ALWAYS fails at the same 99% point of verifying and results in an unreadable, ruined disc. ) Yes, xgd2 burns fail too, and exactly the same way - burn completes succesfully but verify fails at 99%, of course the absolute sector counts are different with every image depending on the size but anyway it's at 99%.

Anyone have any ideas? Speedex tractor serial numbers.

(You would have thought the MSDN CD's would have been enough).
