Consider the following scenario. You configure a computer that is running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 to use the pen service (Wisptis.exe). Then, you restart the computer. In this scenario, an access violation occurs during startup. When the access violation occurs, the Wisptis.exe process exits, and you receive an error message that resembles the following:

Microsoft Tablet PC Input Component was closed
To help protect your computer, Data Execution Prevention has closed Microsoft Tablet PC Input Component. Click to learn more.

On some Windows Vista-based tablet devices, the pen may send a double-click message even though you actually perform a single-click. This problem causes some advanced features that are provided in certain products to be unusable. This problem occurs when the Use flicks to perform common actions quickly and easily feature is disabled.

For example, when you tap the pen one time in the color palette toolbar in Microsoft Paint, a dialog box for a color palette opens instead of a color being selected as expected.

On a mobile PC that is running Windows Vista, the pen pointer does not track the pen stylus. This issue occurs in a multiple-monitor configuration when the external display is set to be the primary display.
