How can I access my tablet?
When I start my tablet now all I get is a message saying, "Undoing changes made to your computer". It stops and seems like it's ready to turn on but then it goes through the whole process again, originally I let it go through this process for the whole day. Do I need to reset it? This table is a TW 102.
