could be some glitching somewhere... can't you get it on the warranty?

OH NO... so I just recently got this tx2z and I love it everything has been running amazing on this machine. Last night, the pen stopped working! I check the pen and input settings and everything is on. The touch function still works, but the pen doesn't work at all. I haven't dropped it or anything to make it quit on me. But I do recall that when I took the pen out of its slot it was little "warm". So I got on the phone with HP. Anyhow, I'm posting a thread just in case anyone has this problem. I searched everywhere and seems like tx2z "pretty new machine" there hasn't been any posting on the pen not working. I only had this computer for a month an half or two. So right now I pulled out the pen and it WORKS! Then 1 minute later, it doesn't work. Does anyone know anything about this pen? I don't think it charges in the computer when stored in the slot because it's "battery less". Any information would be great and very helpful for future pen malfunctions that people may come across on the tx2z. Thanks...

Could be the N-trig software - Its full of bugs.
Try reformating with the recovery CD's. If that dosnt work - you know its a hardware fault and they need to take your laptop in for repair.
I customised my HP tx2z with:
6GB RAM
400GB 5200rpm Hard Disk
2.4Ghz AMD Turrion Ultra x2 ZM-86
Bluetooth + Wireless N
Lightscribe DVD-RW drive
I live in the UK - But I imported my tx2 from america.

Have you checked the batteries in the pen? They don't charge and they will wearout you have have faulty ones. To work and then stop working sounds like a battery problem

There are no battery in the pan Mvaugh12, it gets its energy from a form of RF energy emanated by the screen.

LOL that's good to know but it also means customer service had no clue on what they were talking about when i called to inquire about purchasing a second pen.

Still a nice price for 19.99 for a replacement
