Bugs: tablet pc

Firstly, windowblinds corrupts the on screen keyboard/handwriting gizmo (wisptis). I know it's been brought up before and that it can't be skinned. Can some method be found to hide it from WB? You can't tell WB to ignore it because it just reverts back to windows 95 mode. When its left normal, WB removes the red exit icon and corrupts the text background colour. So your damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Secondly, WB caused my screen to blank out frequently as if sending it into stand by. This might be a hardware bug. My chipset/graphics is Intel 915gm.

Thirdly, one particular skin (Vista R2 Blizz) caused WB to crash and it also brought explorer down with it, together with a slew of dialog boxes. Maybe it had something to do with me not having a wddm driver and the skin needed aero features? Who knows, but the skin seemed to load ok after explorer had restarted. I didn't think anything of it until the final bug showed itself.
After a while, the start menu started playing up. I'd click it and it'd open, but as soon as I lifted the pen from the screen it'd disappear. I had to hard reset the tablet and uninstall WB then.

Other than those bugs, I gotta say I was impressed. WB used to be total bloatware, but it seemed barely noticable now. Kudos.
