Could you list what you tried? Did you turn on sharing? Did you try the
\\IP_address method?

If that doesn't work you can login to the Touch with SSH and read the
log directly. To do this you need an SSH client on another program. For
windows machines the most used one is called PuTTY (its free on the
net). You start PuTTY type in the IP address of the Touch, connect, it
asks for the user, type in root, it then asskes for the password, type
in 1234. If you get strange messages about keys etc, just say go ahead.


You should now be logged into the Touch inside a linux shell. Type:

cd /var/log <Enter>
less messages <Enter>

This brings up the log file. You can scroll up and down through the
file with the arrow keys. 

When done type q (the lower case q key), that brings you back to the
prompt. To get out all together type:

exit <Enter> 

If on Mac or linux bring up a command window and type:

ssh -l root IP_address <Enter>

You will just get the password prompt. Once you get onto the Touch the
rest is the same.
