Guys

My lovely little 6365 started acting up recently.Runs on PPC 2003.

The problem is that at times the device does not recognize the screen taps. I tap one icon, and a totally different program appears. I tap the start Icon, and the drop down menu appears and disappears, then reappears again repeatedly. On hard reset, it gets to the second page where you have to tap the cross hairs, and I tap the cross hairs but the program repeats itself as if on a loop, and sometimes does so without me touching the cross hairs. Eventually it cycles through, but then the same problems occur. Its like a ghost is touching the screen and activating various programs!

I have soft reset and hard reset the device a number of times to fix the problem, all to no avail.

Any Ideas?

Regards

Davzam :confused:

It is possible the the screen is damaged. Call HP if the unit is still under warranty. There are also places that provide repair service and parts if you want to make repair yourself.
