rotation

I have a PDC'09 Acer 1420p tablet with a multi-touch screen. Sometimes when I rotate the display, the multi-touch surface input does not rotate to match. The track pad rotates just fine, but not the screen input. Has anyone else run into this problem on the PDC laptop or any other machine? It uses Intel GMA 4500, running Windows 7 64.
