Okay, I've had this problem for quite some time now, but I need some help.
You see, ever since who can remember when, my Touch Screen has been
slightly inaccurate. It is inaccurate to the point where I can't use the onscreen keyboard
easily or draw correctly. Normally, one would recalibrate their DS touch screen.
Unfortunately, whenever I try to Recalibrate it, it just keeps on repeating.
I have been on the touchscreen calibration screen for along time now,
and it still has not finnished. I cannot get to the screen where you test the calibration.
If anyone could help me, that would be great. In case this helps, I have a normal DS,
not a DS lite.

You have to tap the three squares in the calibration screen really accurately, or else it'll just repeat itself. I'd recommend using an official Nintendo stylus to do it, since they'll probably make it the easiest to calibrate.

If that doesn't work after a few attempts, make sure that your touch screen is okay; if there's a ton of deep scratches or cracks or anything, that could definitely affect its performance (remember that light scratches are common with extensive use of the DS, though).

If none of this helps, then call up Nintendo's customer service asking for help on the situation. Describe the type of DS you have, how often you use it, the issue, how long the issue has been occurring, etc.
