Ive had a load of trouble with my jukebox in the past with freezing and becoming non responsive if the juke was left untouched for a while, After testing various things I figured out that it was the usb touch panel kit I was using that was at fault, So after months of waiting and saving ive finally got a proper gvision touch screen monitor, It has the option to use either usb connection or serial cable, at the moment im using usb and ive been testing it for a while and im getting the non responsive problems all over again, can someone tell me what's better, usb connection or serial? Im only using usb because it faster data transfer but if serial is the way to go then ill with that
used alot of both serial and usb never noticed any difference so dont think it matters
usb is a high speed conection but at the end of the day its all mouse control
getting to your problem would check in control panel under power settings
clear all sleep power down settings set it up so the pc is always on/awake
sounds like some part is sleeping when its not active also check under
mouse settings and touch driver software settings
Could be the USB turning off after a set time??? It does sound like something is sleeping, make sure everythig is set to always on.
could be if the above doesnt solve it it might be in your bios settings under usb settings
Im going to give serial a try, I don't want to disable usb in bios cos I need the usb for updating the database
no dont disable usb just check the settings in bios like wake on usb etc
but try and resolve it first through windows or see how serial connection works as you said
Check the properties of the USB device under device manager
Cant seem to get serial to work properly, ive installed the drivers but there is no way to collaborate the touch screen, So its back to usb
what touch screen is it
on install does it give options to search connection usb and com 1 or in the software normaly there will
be options/settings to add usb or com1 connection
uninstal and reinstal should find com1 [serial]
Gonna give that a go tonight will let you know how things went

Thanks Jukejohn that helped although the gvision software didn't find the com 1 port I downloaded eGalaxtouch driver and that did the job, ive now got serial working, I now need it to stop being non responsive when left for a while.
A BIG thanks to everyone else who helped

Job Done, so far so good, I left the juke to stand for two to three hours untouched and as soon as I touched the screen the juke responded as it should have, I a so pleased ive got that problem resolved, Thanks again to everyone who chipped in

Was going to post that up, it should switch off hibernation but you don't need to worry now. Glad you are up and running... I'm currently without internet unil the 22nd so I will not be posting as much.
Im without internet aswel cos me pc is acting like a propper bitch, connecting then not connecting and thats after i reinstalled aswel so im getting new bits in the new year so im postin of me fone lol
Yeah I have moved so I still have internet at my old place but no computer there so phone and wifi for me too. New place has cable though so once that's installed it should be much faster than my ADSL connection. I can see the exchange from my old place yet the maximum speed I can get is 6mb, ADSL is just so poor compared to cable. I can't believe BT were so slow in rolling out fibre, they could have had everywhere done long ago and got the jump on cable on most places. Anywhere cable was laying fibre BT should have done the same, looks like poor managment and lack of forward thinking like most ex publicly owned companies.
lol you enjoyed that good old moan barry ;D
or should we call you victor meldrue I DONT BELEIVE IT ;D
Lol, im on fibre optic anf the speed i get is 28 meg out of 30 as long as there isnt a lot of traffic
I have had ADSL twice at 2 properties and both were so close to the exchange you could see it. The one was 1 minute walk away and both of them couldn't get about 6mb. The first time was using BT and that's when i was 1 minute away from the exchange and the last time i was using O2 and I was like 6 minutes walk away from the exchange. Admittedly it' s the same exchange in walsall town center so that's probably why, luckilly my new place is on the edge of town and they have cable there, quite why they didn't cable the town I don't know.
