SP3: Change Screen Orientation Broken (DELL Latitude XT)
in [Tablet PC]
|
Prev: input panel error
Next: Where do I open the TIP?
From: hilaireg on 12 May 2008 10:07 Hi All, Upgraded my DELL Latitude XT TabletPC to WinXP SP3; pressing the Screen Rotation button or selecting Change Screen Orientation from the Tablet And Pen Settings applet produces the following error: "The setting you requested cannot be supported" Rolling back to pre-SP3 returns the desired functionality. I've also contacted DELL support and posted this on their forum. NOTE: I did a quick Depency Trace and noticed that the Tablet And pen Settings applet (TABBTNU.EXE) is issuing a bad DLL call.

From: hilaireg on 12 May 2008 10:36 Hi All, Quick update; a known issue with Catalyst 8.2 and SP3 ( KB 947309) was initially reported ... looks like the problem is still present in the latest version of the Catalyst driver. Regards, hilaireg

So I just find today a solution The only thing to do is to go to windows update chose a custom update, and choose the optional hardware update for the x1250 graphic card ( 11mb) if you apply the update and restart it works like a charm Enjoy Dechief Raphaël IT netwok manager @ ISB
From: hilaireg on 23 May 2008 10:24 Hi All, Just checked a similar thread I posted on ATI's and DELL's websites. I received a response on both forums: Catalyst 8.5 addresses the screen rotation issue I downloaded the release notes for ATI Catalyst 8.5 and the last pages of the release notes indicate that the Screen Rotation issue is resolved. I'll try it on the weekend and confirm that this does indeed solve the problem.

Hi All, Well, I applied the Catalyst 8.5 & Avivo 8.5 to my DELL Latitude XT TabletPC; I can now use the Catalyst Control Center to rotate the display. Unfortunately, pressing the TabletPC Screen Rotation button or selecting the Change Screen Orientation menu option from Tablet And Pen Settings (TABBTNU.EXE) does not function. I continue to get: "The setting you requested cannot be supported" Regards, hilaireg "hilaireg" wrote: > Hi All, > > Just checked a similar thread I posted on ATI's and DELL's websites.
