We need the full model #. Also on the info page of bios the bios and ec #. (Like L16/L11)

I think you need the touchscreen driver from Panasonic...I use the jp site.

You can however switch between touch and tablet and see if that helps. Another important thing is to set to defaults in bios.

Speaking for the CF-30 MK1 the touchscreen driver does not come with the Panasonic restore disk so I download a file similar to the following.

Just cause I think you will need them: http://pc-dl.panasonic.co.jp/dl/docs/01 ... &trn_org=2

Holler if you need help. "Ador" sets up more CF-19s than I do.

Is it giving you an error when it won't calibrate? or you fully going though calibration and it just isn't working? I have seen several bad touches "half working and not working" on the Mk1's, why I have moved on to the mk 2, that and the use of windows 7 64 bit.

On the CF-19 restore disk, everything works out of the box on it.

The model number is CF-19CJBAABM Bios V1.00L14 and E.C. is V1.00L11. Aside from the touch screen it seams to be working .This is my first CF-19,but not my first toughbook. I just tryed to reinstall the driver for the touchscreen but it still dose not work on top and bottom.

You're short a letter. Could it be CJBAAAM?

Go into device manager.

Under hid, do you see Fujitsu displayed.
If Fujitsu is there you have a bad touch panel. Sounds like one circuit of the TS could be flaky. Common in CF-19 and CF-30 MK1. (and 2,3,4,5 CF-29)

OR:
They changed to a new style connector on the TSPCB and the FPC may have slipped out. That is your next step.
My advise is to check the plug in and if loose..tape firmly in place. The CF-29 used a spring-loaded connector and the "new" style uses the brown slide in thingy.(technical term) As I think about this your unit acts like the resistance is off on one leg (partial circuit) Re-plugging may cure it. Usually bad TS will shoot the cursor off the screen or show no reaction.

Or as long as you are there replace the touchpanel with the new style. They don't de-laminate. Available from techtuff (ebay mobilemama). If you contact Andre(techtuff) through http://forum.notebookreview.com/panasonic/ he may give you a discount.

Best wishes,

Jeff...I can usually fix these...

It makes me wonder if its software related...I have a CF-30MK1 that only has about 500 hours tops on the new touchscreen that heartland installed in it but I get an error when I calibrate it so I installed W7 on it and it works great...no problem at all when I calibrate it now. Does this make any sence at all... :confused:

Hi Jeff
The recovery DVD does have the touch screen driver. It is removed by sysprep if not seen in the hardware.
This script was pulled from a 30m1 after running the recovery DVD....before booting in an usb enclosure.
run once cmd....
