When we buy a laptop or mobile phone, their performance level is locked to a certain level even if they can work to a higher level for reasons such as prohibiting more power usage or more memory usage. But if you want to increase the limit of any of the features you just have to hack into your system and change its limit. Today i will be telling you how to increase the touch screen responsiveness on the Microsoft Surface, this is a very small and easy kind of hack which includes Registry modification.

Procedure-

• Search "regedit" and Run Registry Editor in your Microsoft Surface.
• Go to this key : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\TouchPredict ion
• Edit key for latency from 8 to 2.
• Edit sample time from 8 to 2
• Restart your Surface

Now your Surface is ready with increased touch screen responsiveness but there is a small disadvantage of this, that is the battery backup will decrease by a small amount as the screen draws more power.
