Q: How do I calibrate this convertible notebook's pen in Windows XP?

A: The first time you use your convertible tablet notebook, you should calibrate your pen for both portrait and landscape orientations. In just a few seconds, calibration ensures the accuracy of the pen and adjusts the digitizer's performance for different users. Be sure to hold the pen just as you would a normal writing pen when completing the calibration exercise.

If the on-screen pointer does not seem to line up with the tip of the pen, because someone else has used your convertible tablet notebook and adjusted it for his or her own use, recalibrate it to your tapping patterns.

Recalibrate if you write with the opposite hand from the previous user, for example, a right-handed writer to left-handed writer.

To open the calibration program:

1. In the system tray, double-tap (the tablet and pen settings icon), and then tap Calibrate tab.

2. On the screen, tap the crosshair each time it appears.

Note: You must calibrate for each screen orientation.
