MicroTouch TouchWare for Windows Version 5.4, November 1999 Copyright 1991-1999 MicroTouch Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. ________________________________________________________ PRODUCT SUMMARY --------------- Touchware 5.4 provides support for touchscreen operation on Windows 95/98 and Windows NT 4.0, using a true 32-bit implementation of the driver and control panel. TouchWare for Windows allows the MicroTouch touchscreen to act like a mouse device for use with any application running under Windows 95/98 or Windows NT 4.0. ENHANCEMENTS ------------ * TouchWare 5.4 includes an auto orientation detect function that determines the relative position of the sensor to the monitor upon calibration. * TouchWare 5.4 provides the ability to switch between 2-point and 5-point calibration depending on user preference. * In TouchWare 5.4, the functions previously found on the Special tab can now be accessed from the Tools tab. In addition, this dialog calls an Advanced Touchscreen Properties dialog that enables you to perform a significant number of new functions including: - Enable Noise Filter - Enable Linearization - Disable Splash Screen - Disable Calibration Reminder - Disable Calibration Verification - Enable Video Diagnostic Tools - Enable Touch Modes * TouchWare 5.4 adds a preset timeout to terminal mode. * TouchWare 5.4 includes what had previously been separate software as TouchWare for ThruGlass, TouchWare for MousePort and TouchWare for USB. * Advanced users now have the option of implementing 25-point linearization for each touchscreen. * TouchWare 5.4 supports Multiple Monitor configurations in Windows 9X and Windows NT 4.0.

If your system has difficulty during startup, you may be experiencing timing conflicts with some anti-virus software. Timing conflicts can occur when more than one program attempts to load as Windows starts up. Refer to the anti-virus software manufacturer's website for additional information on how to resolve these timing issues. 2. In planning to use a touchscreen 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. 3. If you are installing a MousePort controller, you must disconnect as well as disable any existing PS/2 mouse drivers/hardware prior to installing TouchWare. Verify IRQ 12 is not being used by the system. Even if the hardware is disconnected, the system may still be claiming the IRQ. Note: Some styles of laptop mice cannot be physically removed. However, they can usually be disabled. 4. The setup program does not remove the DOSTOUCH program from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file during a Windows 95 upgrade installation. 5. 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. 6. 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.
