In order to fix this issue, update to the most recent version available on the notebook. If this does not work, replace the screen.
A main reason the touch screen does not respond right away is due to the computer trying to save power if you have not used it in 10+ seconds. To get to this setting: Open up “Device Manager” in Control Panel» Expand “Human Interface Device”» Double click “FCL USB Pen Tablet”» Choose “power Management” tab» uncheck “allow the computer to turn off this device to save power”

You can’t hear the sound coming from your computer.
On the left side of your LifeBook, there is a volume control knob. Look at the knob to make sure that the volume setting is on the loud side rather than mute.
Check to see if you left a pair of headphones plugged into the headphone jack. If they are plugged in, this disables the built in speakers from playing sound out loud.
Even though software comes installed on your Fujitsu LifeBook, there may be an error inside of the computer with the sound. If this is the problem, the LifeBook should have come with a “Drivers and Applications” CD with purchase.
