Help How to reset touch screen?

So twice in the past two days, the screen isnt registering where Im tapping on it. Last night, when I was trying to pick the middle right lower icon, it kept opening the menu. When I clicked the lower right icon, it would click the dot for the next window.

It was seeming to register about a half inch lower on the screen than where I was actually pressing.

Another thing that was happening was when scrolling, it would click on things instead of scroll. I was in the Appmarket and scrolling through apps when it would click on one and then start installing. This was very frustrating although I was lucky none of the apps that installed were paid apps.

Its working fine now this morning but its a bit disconcerting.

Has anyone been able to do a screen reset or reconfigure the touch?
