This is the informatin given to me by Smart themselves, and so far it seems to be working. Thanks for everyones help. Thanks for contacting SMART Technologies Technical Support To adjust the sensitivity of the pen, finger and eraser modes in touch recognition settings Click start> All Programs > SMART Technologies > SMART Board Driver > Control Panel > SMART Hardware Settings > Mouse and Gesture Setting > Choose enable touch recognition > Click touch recognition settings

That looks like my board, and they are brand new as of October...so where do I need to go to do this adjusting? I ask this, because I do not want to do more damage in my trial and errors. IF you know what I mean. Thank you

They are awake and some giggle, but mostly they get frustrated like I do. The pens are working normally. I had another teacher who has worked with them for 3 years now come in and he said the pens are working normally, and this issue he had not seen before. When you pick up green, the green light comes on and so on with the other pens...it is just when you are writing it will revert over to the pointer. I will check out some other responses and see if the settings are off or something. It was working fine, and no one else in the district is having this issue...so yes, it would figure it was me. Thanks for all the responses, and if there are other ideas, please let me know. And I will let you know what does fix it for me. Thanks, I am glad I found this board. Shannon

I have a new smartboard, and it has been wonderful up to this point. All of a sudden, within the last week, I have this issue. You open notebook and start drawing, ( I teach physics and chemistry) and draw quite a bit on the board. So I have a pen in hand, and while drawing it will suddenly switch to the pointer. If I do not notice this, then my drawing moves on the board. So I tap the pen button at the top again and start drawing again. Then it switches to the pointer again..and so on and so on. I have triied recalibrating, and do not know what is going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Shannon
