Ok,

For the past 3 days or I noticed that while I was using windows Journal, I would sporadically loose all functionality of my Pen (while in portrait orientation) until I restarted the computer. I figured that it may have been my wacom drivers, so I uninstalled them and reverted back to the pre-installed drivers on Win XP-TP'Ed. The good news is that I no longer loose pen functionality; however, now it appears as though I can perform a "double click" simply by pointing at randon icons, or areas of the screen.

I have no idea what is causing this, because i have never had this problem before (until a few days ago). I've tried to think what recently instally software could have caused such a phenomenon, but I can't think of anything.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Note:
I've been an advocate of Acer, despite other's horror stories, and my own painful experienceS, but I'm beginning to feel like calling Acer HQ, and telling them that I don't want their tablet anymore "may I please have my monney back?".

Akil,
double click by pointing, or by clicking? If clicking, turn down the sensitivity and see if that helps. If not, then you've got me.

QC,

It mysteriously double clicks simply by "pointing". I don't even have to tough the screen sometimes !! Very unnerving... and frustrating...

Akil,

You know, the thing that recognizes a "click" is actually your stylus, not the screen. That's why you can rest your palm on the screen and it will not register anything. There is a senser (probably just a simple electro resister) in your acer stylus that tells it whether you're pressing it or not (and supposedly has 256 levels of sensitivity).

I have a feeling that your stylus tip is jammed too deep. Try using the twizzer that came with your tablet and pull it out and re-insert it back to see if it helps.

Dave,

I thought of that actually, so I changed my stylus tip. Nothing. Furthermore, when it goes haywire, not even the smaller stylus will work.

Thanks for the suggestions though :-)
