In my Windows Phone 8.0 project, I am using 2 slider(right and left side) for controlling my robot but it is possible to use multitouching on Windows Phone Emulator? I would like to control 2 slider at the same time.
Sliders
If you run it on a computer with multi-touch then the emulator will pass that through.
If not then you can only test single-touch or specific gestures such as rotate and pinch-zoom with the "Multi-touch Input" tool (the hand on the emulator's toolbar). It will be a bit limited, but you should be able to use this tool to run both sliders simultaneously, if not independently.

What is the best approach to set a Windows Phone 7 led to torch mode? I have used http://www.locked.nl/wp7-flashlight-getting-started but using reflection and/or the VideoCaptureDevice is not allowed. (only works on dev phone)
I have used the AutoFocusCompleted event and have tried a task (taskfactory.new) and regular task. My latest attempt uses the DispatcherTimer.
So what is the best approach to keep calling Focus and/or FocusAtPoint to minimize the blinking and get the closest to a constant light.
Windows Phone 7 - Camera Flash App Not Functioning
I have a pen tablet that serves as a brilliant input - I don't use a mouse anymore.
I want to use a swipe + contextual predictor on screen keyboard for my computer. Is there any software available for windows 8 that i can install on windows 7?
ALSO, if all is vain, should I take the pain of installing an android emulator? Will it hog any memory?
I am developing a game for Windows Phone 7 using XNA, and I have set it up so that it runs as a Windows XNA app as well. The thing that I am having a problem with now is simulating the XNA touch gestures using the mouse in the same way that the Windows Phone 7 emulator does. I can't use the Windows Phone 7 emulator because it refuses to run on my laptop, because the hardware isn't new enough.
Any ideas on where I might either find a library which can translate mouse data to touch gestures, or where I might find enough information to get started without huge amounts of guesswork?
Here is a good article about Gestures (CS)/Gestures (VB).
Article Overview
Compare the Gestures abilities of Windows Phone 7 to other major phone
platforms, and learn how to take both gesture and raw touch input on
Windows Phone 7. This article is a thorough comparison of the gestures
features available across the major phone platforms, and contains code
to support basic touch-based input scenarios.
Can someone tell me how to test the Touch function in VS2010 for Windows Phone 7 emulator? I wrote a simple phone 7 app to test touch function, when I move the mouse and click in side the phone screen, nothing happened.

The mouse does work for single finger gestures and taps, not sure why it wouldn't work for you except to assume that your code must not be working as you assume :-)
Just for reference, the other way of testing multi-touch is to have a multi-touch enabled monitor
It's a bit annoying having to deploy to a device everytime to test multitouch functionality so I was just wondering if it's possible to fake the second finger. Obviously plugging in two mouse's doesn't help...
There's no out of the box support for this at the moment, but there are some options you can look into for this.

In addition to the links from Mick N, you may also want to have a look at the MultiTouch Behavior for Windows Phone 7. As this includes support for simulating multiple touches with the emulator and a single mouse while testing.
