6 Chapter 1 Getting Started
Windows XP. The first time Windows starts, the Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005
Tutorials appear. If you do not want this screen to appear every time you start the computer,

Step 3: Calibrate the digitizer
With tablet PCs, you will frequently use a pen instead of a mouse and keyboard to interact
with the computer. Use the pen to move the pointer around the screen, and tap the screen
to click. Use Tablet PC Input Panel to enter text (page 21).
The digitizer detects the position of the pen on the screen. You should calibrate the digitizer
the first time you start the system, and again whenever the pointer does not align with the
pen tip.
To calibrate the digitizer
1. Press the Dashboard button ( ) to start Motion Dashboard.
You can use Motion Dashboard to configure the system and to start commonly used
applications. See “Using Motion Dashboard” on page 20.
2. Tap the Pen & Tablet tab.
3. Tap Calibrate Digitizer.
4. Follow the instructions in the calibration program.
Note: If you are left-handed, see “How do I adjust the system for left-handed use?” on
page 72.
Step 4: Get familiar with the system
You can use the Windows Tablet PC tutorials to learn about the tablet computing
capabilities of Windows, such as pen support, touch screen support, digital ink input, and
handwriting recognition.
