Windows 98 USB Touch Mode Selection
  • Run REGEDIT.
  • Drill down to
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
      1. \Enum
        1. \USB
          1. \VID_04E7&PID_0001
  • Open the key folder below this path for the installed touchscreen that's represented by the USB controller's 8-digit serial number. If there's more than one, you'll have to guess which one is currently installed. (The registry never forgets a face: The serial numbers of any Elo USB touchscreen ever plugged into the system will be displayed.)
  • Find the "Driver" value and record its data. "Mouse\0001" is typical.
  • Now drill down to
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
      1. \System
        1. \CurrentControlSet
          1. \Services
            1. \Class
  • Continue drilling down to the key name represented by the value data found in step 4 above. For the example above, you would find and open the "Mouse" key, then open the "0001" key.
  • To change the touch mode, add a binary value named MouseMode.
    • Select Edit from the menu, then New, then Binary Value, and type in MouseMode for the new value name (pay attention to case).
  • Set the MouseMode value to the data for the desired touch mode.
    • Double-click the value.
      • A newly created value will display 0000, which is not editable; you add the new data by typing it in:
        • 00 00    Click on Touch
        • 01 00    Click on Untouch
        • 04 00    Drag
        • 05 00    Drag, double-click
      • Editing an existing value will display 0000 0x 00; drag over the editable portion to select it, then enter the new value.
  • Unplug the touchscreen USB connection, wait 10 seconds, then reconnect the USB cable to apply the new settings.
