XV6700 Touchscreen works to get into align screen wizard the freezes

[aczlan]

I picked up a XV6700 from ebay and when I got it it was locked (with someone elses name and pin) so I did a hard reset, now it starts up, it goes into the welcome to windows mobile screen, when I tap on the screen (anywhere on the screen, it doesn't seem to matter where) it goes into the align screen wizard and then it is like the digitizer is turned off, it does not respond. First I tried cleaning the goop and lint from around the screen with a piece of paper, no change, then I tried deleting Welcome.exe, and the shortcut in the Windows\Startup folder but got an access denied error. I tried editing the registry to delete references to Welcome.exe, also access denied. I tried changing the sensitivity of the digitizer in the registry, that changed but it didn't make a difference. I also tried loading the digitizer defaults that someone else had posted, also access denied.
Somewhere along the way I tried installing MyMobile but it just sits and wont install.

Am I missing something? Is this a dead digitizer or is there something else that I can do?

I installed the APA_Verizon_31430_314208_14300_WWE_Ship_2 update (successfully) I tried to install PDAJ's version of 6.1 but the version for the 1.04 bootloader (which I have) just gave me a 120 invalid country code error.
Here is a picture of the screen that comes up when it first starts to give you the version numbers, etc.

Any ideas/suggestions? Is there something stupidly simple that I am missing?
