Surface Pro 3 touchscreen does not respond correctly

Original title: touchscreen turns out be a pain

Hello and sorry for such a pessimistic title for my post, but it's the truth.

I feel like I have to clean all my touch screens at least a dozen times every day and who still does not seem to keep them working properly. I use Windows Pro 8.1 on my 3 Surface Pro and my office and touch screens on both systems, of course. My question is simple enough, it seems that I have to click on 'touch' on any of a zillion times for the computer to realize that I'm actually doing something. Is this normal after the first week or I have to update the drivers or something?

Also, is it just me or do DirectX present a major problem with touch screens? I play LOTRO and I double-click-right on everything in order for people to talk to me or to make a transaction in store interfaces. This is not normal, and if that's the case, why can't not Microsoft fix this? I can't be the only person who has noticed or written on touch and directx...

Anyway, if anyone knows of solutions other than return to the mouse, please let me know. :)

Hi Heiko,

Thanks for the update. This could be caused by a compatibility problem between Internet Explorer and the site that you are. Sometimes, this can be fixed by adding the site to your list of compatibility view.

Difficulty of the problems to view site with compatibility view

If the problem persists, then as you say the problem seems to be specific to the application it would be best to contact their support site.

I hope this helps. If you need help with Windows, let us know and will be happy to help you.

  • Microsoft Surface Pro - striking swiping does not work

    Hello

    I have desktop, versions Tablet and phone from my site, designed with Muse and everything works fine... except on a Pro of Microsoft Surface (Tablet version) drag between the images in the slideshow doesn't work.  I tested this on an iPad, the Tablet Dell, Tablet Samsung Tab and slide it works well in the version of the tablet of the site.  The version of the Tablet displays well on the Surface Pro, but none of the many slideshows work with swipe.  (Slippery surface works with other sites).  All updates have been applied to the Surface, and I re-calibrated the touch screen.

    Here is the site:

    www.johnblaustein.com HOME page (note that the slideshows are auto-play, but slideshows with images numbers below the frame image are not auto-play and work with hitting swipe)

  • OfficeJet Pro 8000 wireless: OfficeJet Pro 8000 wireless does not respond after a certain time

    I use my wireless OfficeJet Pro 8000 for quite awhile now, but I have a problem that I can't solve:

    Initially, it works allright. But after a few hours, it seems to go to sleep. And it does not print jobs more. I have to put the printer 'off' and 'on '.  After that, it will print the work queue.

    I searched a timer as issues in the web interface of the printer, but can't find anything that points to a solution.

    The printer is connected wireless to my router, using a 'fixed' IP address

    Can someone help me, please?

    Thankx

    These settings are to set up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, wireless devices stay better connected and makes your router secure and hack proof.

    While the DHCP is convenient, devices like printers must always be assigned an IP (fixed) manually to avoid conflicts on your wireless network.

    1. Set a static in the printer IP address (click here) outside the range of the DHCP of the router (check your manual). It is for Linksys routers, but can be used for all routers. Check your DHCP range and change this first if necessary. More Help Wireless Printing is here (Windows solution 4, static IP).
    2. Or check in the printer "Auto off" is disabled the System Mode Time Out is set to zero (0) Use the built-in webserver (EWS) by visiting the printer address IP address in the address bar of your browser, click on settings tab/Auto Off. Or use the printer, printer Home Page (EWS) Wizard. Also check the properties of your printers.
    3. If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, disable the IPv6 option in the printer.
    4. If necessary and you have assigned a static IP address, try using auxiliary for the preferred DNS Server 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as DNS server.
    5. Wireless printers work only on the 2.4 Ghz band.
    6. Make sure the printer is on the latest firmware by checking with the HP support site.
    7. Check all devices wireless in your home for interference. Check microwave, babyphones, phones, wireless and wireless alarm systems are a big culprit. Any of these will knock at your printer wireless intermittently.
    8. Make sure that your printer and router are at least 6 feet, independently of the other.

    In the router: (refer to the manual of your router for more information)

    1. Use a fixed wireless channel as the 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.
    2. Set the router to 20 Mhz only or 145Mbps router function.
    3. Always use WPA2-AES encryption (personal), but you can try the "mixed" mode
    4. Disable the WPS and never use it and disable the UPnP for the security of routers. No one can hijack your system now and help with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, research on the web).
    5. If you have a router dual band (2.4 Ghz and 5.0 Ghz bands), make sure the SSID is NOT identical, they must be different for all the bands, even for networks without comments.
    6. SSID broadcast should be enabled.
    7. Save all the settings. Food at the same time, wait 2 minutes.  Power on router wait 2 minutes.
    8. Marketing the printer and check that it reconnects to the router.

    Windows 7/8/8.1 is discovered the system on or off?

    1. Control Panel/Network and Internet/network and sharing Center / advanced sharing settings.
    2. Under home or work (current profile) / network discovery.
    3. Select "Turn on network discovery" and save the changes.

    Last resort effort - if your printer has an Ethernet connection, suggest you to get some adapters line and convert your Ethernet wiring for your printer.

  • Surface Pro Fallout 3 does not

    Can someone get Fallout 3 to work on the Surface Pro. I can install it via Steam, get to the screen to launch, but when I press Play; the game fails to load or to go further - any suggestions?

    OK, for those who have the same problem. Here is the solution.

    You will need (from the Fallout 3 Nexus and a French site that I found)
    (1) disable Games for Windows Live (you will not be able to use it at first, but be prepared)
    (2) I started a game on my main game rig to generate the following files to at least get the initialized game Fallout ini, falloutprefs and Renderinfo
    I copy & pasted into My Documents / my games / Fallout 3. on my Pro Surface
    Now (since I got the inifile in place) I could launch the program disable Games for Windows Live
    You will still not managed to start a game at this point, but is one of the biggest obstacles to the road.
    Now go to Fallout 3 Nexus and download the compressed file Package Intel HD Graphics Byypass
    Unzip it and follow the instructions.
    Click the shortcut of Fallout 3 and there you go. :) - Finally

  • Satellite Pro L850-1DW does not start correctly

    Hello

    I have a client who has a L850-1DW / PSKDHE-00E005EN laptop.

    She keeps pointing out that the computer does not start successfully from the cold.
    She argues that the question arises mainly when the battery starts but sometimes when it is plugged into the mains.
    I can see where point of newspapers that BSOD were registered at the start and that, on more than one occasion, his computer was recovered from a restore of Windows. He has also recovered factory once too.

    Although I've seen the consequences of these issues of "start-up" I have yet to experience first hand with the device.

    I noticed yesterday that the BIOS is outdated (as I had an alert Tempro).
    I upgraded from 1.6 to 6.50. Yet once, I didn't have problems.
    I can't find the release notes for the BIOS so I don't know if this is a known problem that has been fixed.
    I don't know if this "intermittent" defect is just that or if the user has the power button down too hard or for too long and in fact inadvertently crashing NB itself.

    Any suggestion is welcome.

    Otherwise, I guess I have to connect a call with Toshiba.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. In my opinion, you should ask your client if you can make the data backup and install original recovery image. To my laptop computer reviews must be tested with the settings without installation of additional software.

    > I don't know if this "intermittent" defect is just that or if the user has the power button down too hard or for too long and in fact inadvertently crashing NB itself.
    Who knows? Ask your client and show how to start the laptop by pressing the button walk / stop. It must be done slowly and for only one second.

  • After installing windows XP Pro my computer does not start correctly

    After you have installed Windows XP Pro on my HP Pavilion (updated to XP home), my computer will not end the restart process.  I have repeatedly in a loop once the blue screen with the HP logo.  When this has happened before after installing a pack of updates for XP Home, we just started in safe mode and then had it will restart at an earlier time, thus eliminating the updates.  However, now when I try to start in safe mode, I get an error message that says: "Windows Setup cannot start in safe mode" and I leave safe mode.  We hoped that by installing Windows XP Pro, this problem should go away.  Can anyone help?  I have read several other entries in the forum for similar problems, but they all have to do with updates.  This is the first time I was not able to use safe mode, so now I'm stuck.  I hope that I can avoid having to perform a full system recovery, since it is a long involved process and having once before, I always felt the same restart problems after installing updates.

    PA bear,

    Thank you for help... After reading several posts in the forum, one of them reminded people to check with the manufacturer of the computer so that possible solutions... and this is the solution here, I wish I thought of him earlier... I did a system recovery to remove the Windows HP Pro and return to the original version of the default value.  Then I went to the HP site and downloaded the patch according to their directions.  Problems fixed! :-)

    Any PERSON HAVING HARD REBOOT YOUR HP PAVILION (with an AMD processor) after you install Windows XP service pack 2 or 3 updates:

    HP has a patch that solved all my problems.  Clearly, service packs contain information for Intel processors that is in conflict with AMD processors in many HP Pavilion desktop computers.  You can go to their customer service solutions website and download the patch.  Since I did it, I had no other problems. I wish just that I had discovered the solution until I had to do a full system recovery.

    If your computer hangs on reboot 'loop', see if this info. HP will help you:

    The computer restarts after a Stop error message display 0x0000007E (after update with Service Pack 3 for Windows XP)

    If you have had problems with XP updates, including service pack 2 or 3, try this page:
