PRODUCT SUMMARY
---------------------------------

TouchWare for Windows is the software for your MicroTouch 
touchscreen. It allows users to select, launch, and drag objects 
using the touchscreen.

TouchWare provides full touchscreen functionality for all 
applications running under Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0, 
Windows Me, and Windows 9X. It uses a true 32-bit implementation of 
the driver and control panel to implement touchscreen support.

ENHANCEMENTS
---------------------------

KNOWN ANOMALIES
--------------------------------

*  The keyboard type for Japanese Windows NT systems using PS/2
   controllers may be reported as an unknown MtsI8042.sys type.
   To correct this, use the Control Panel to select the proper
   keyboard type. Then uninstall TouchWare, reboot, and reinstall
   TouchWare. The keyboard type should remain whatever you
   previously selected.

*  Occasionally on Windows 98 and Me, the USB installation will
   not work until after a reboot.

*  Prior to attaching a USB controller, the TouchWare USB software
   needs to be installed. Occasionally, under Windows 2000, even
   after the USB software is installed, insertion of the USB
   controller may fail to load the driver. If this happens, go to
   the Control Panel, double-click on the "System" icon, go to the
   "Hardware" tab, and press the "Device Manager" button. Expand
   the "Mice and other pointing devices" section and select the
   "MicroTouch Touchscreen" entry, which should have a yellow
   warning indicator over its icon. From the "Action" menu, issue
   the "Uninstall" command. Unplug and replug the controller and the
   driver will be found.

*  The stabilize cursor feature has been disabled for Windows 2000 
   PS/2 TouchWare. To stabilizing jittery cursors, right click on
   your desktop and select properties.  Go to the "Settings" tab.
   Click on the "Advanced" button and select the "Adapter" tab.
   On this page, look for a button or list box that lists the
   different monitor frequencies. Do a trial and error test by
   selecting different frequencies until you find one that does
   not interfere with the cursor.

*  TouchWare does not support the "hibernation" shut down mode in
   Windows 2000.

*  For installation of the PS/2 TouchWare software under Windows 2000,
   the PS/2 touchscreen controller must be connected to the system
   before it is booted. 

*  If you are installing a PS/2 controller under Windows 9x or NT,
   you must uninstall any previous TouchWare version as well as
   disconnect and disable any existing PS/2 mouse drivers/hardware
   prior to installing the new version of TouchWare. Verify that
   IRQ 12 is not being used by the system. Even if the mouse
   hardware is disconnected, the system can still claim the IRQ.

   Note: Some styles of laptop mice cannot be physically removed.
   However, they can usually be disabled.  

*  TouchWare does not always recognize PS/2 MicroTouch controllers. 
   When this happens, the MicroTouch PS/2 driver disables the
   keyboard. You must uninstall TouchWare to regain the keyboard.
   This appears to happen on some PC's due to BIOS incompatibilities.
   You should keep a serial mouse attached to the system during
   installation so you can use the system if the keyboard becomes
   disabled.

*  In planning to use a touchscreen under Windows 9x without a mouse
   or keyboard installed, you must first remove the mouse and reboot. 
   Then, using the keyboard, you can disable the Windows dialog
   warning "Mouse not found".  Finally, remove the keyboard and
   reboot the system.

*  If you attempt to attach an additional USB device to your system
   after installing TouchWare, you may lose touch functionality
   during installation of that device. You should keep a keyboard
   or mouse attached to the system during USB device installation.

*  If you uninstall TouchWare, you should restart the system before
   installing a new version of the software.

*  TouchWare does not support the custom directory option for serial
   multiple touchscreen configurations.

*  The setup program does not remove the DOSTOUCH program from
   the AUTOEXEC.BAT file during a Windows 95 upgrade installation.

*  The setup program will only look for the default directories for
   previous TouchWare versions on the target system when doing a
   Windows 95 upgrade installation.

*  Some older video cards may cause conflicts with COM 4. Refer to
   Article ID: Q127138 in the Microsoft Technical Support Knowledge 
   base for further information.

*  If you are using a ThruGlass controller, you may have difficulty
   making selections at the top or bottom of the screen. To correct
   the problem, select ThruGlass Configuration -> Diagnostics ->
   Auto Frequency.
