Elan touchpad not working in Windows 10

I have an Aspire ES1-711-P14W and have build 10240 of Windows 10 and the Elantech touchpad does not function in 10, This is not a hardware issue because it functions fine in Windows 8.1. I have tried the drivers from acer, looked in the bios for anthing mouse related. It does not show up in the device manager, when I unplug my Logitech mouse the "Mouse and Other Pointing Devices" tab dissapeares. It looks like Windows 10 is not even loading a generic driver. When I unplug my external mouse the cursor dissapeares as well.  

I have a Aspire S7-392-9439 and I have the same problem after installing Windows 10. Type Mouse into the Start Menu and run the mouse control panel.  Go to ELAN Tab on Mouse Properties. The problems I see are that     1) the "Enable Device" is ghosted (whether or not any external devices are plugged in)     2) "Disable when external USB pointing device plug in" is checked, even after I uncheck it and Restart.  it sets this back to "checked" status no matter what. If I click on "Enable Device" it runs the driver software, however the two buttons don't work.  i.e. left button, right button.  You can move the pointer around just fine using the Touchpad as normal.  Also, multi-finger gestures don't work like two finger scrolling, etc.. Also when you click on Options to bring up the "Elan Smart Pad" options for the Touchpad.  You will notice that this button does nothing!!! I have noticed that after setting things up correctly and Restarting Windows 10, and logging in as normal, the touchpad will operate correctly for a few seconds.  I can move the pointer around and close Explorer windows that are open, for example.  However, as system tray icons continue to load in and other programs start up e.g. Sticky Notes and so on... the touchpad breaks down and you can't see any pointer or get anything done.  Something breaks it after it was working! The ELAN software is simply not finished off for Windows 10... it needs to be finished off ASAP as our computers are somewhat broken.

  • Keyboard and touchpad not working after Windows 10 update

    after udating windows 10 on my probook 4440s keyboard and touchpad not working. if i press a key for 10seconds the key then shows up in the screen. and touchpad is worst. it freezes all the time barely moves. but with usb mouse it works fine 

    It's known that installing Windows from an external DVD drive on a Mid 2013 MacBook Air causes that the keyboard doesn't work after finishing the installation. The fix is to install Windows by using a USB drive. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4599

  • Laptop keyboard and touchpad not working in Windows 8.1

    I just upgraded my S875-S7248 to Windows 8.1 last night. At first, everything seemed to be fine. However, this morning, the keyboard and touchpad had stopped working, and nothing I've tried has fixed it.  After some research, I figured out how to open the Device Manager, and the both devices are showning the infamous yellow triangle. When I click on the device, I see the message "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is imcomplete or damaged (Code 19)". Both devices are PS/2 devices, and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the device, and updating the driver, but to no avail. In addition, I've run the Toshiba Service Station driver update, but it doesn't retrun any new updates either.
    So, short of unstalling Windows 8, what can I do to fix this?
    Solved!

    Hi rmikereese
    I had the same issue - but luckily you dont have to uninstall Windows 8 (at least I didn't need to)
    Running a system restore should bring your computer before you installed the "critical updates" from Toshiba.  Fortunately I had a usb mouse already installed (because like you, my touchpad was also not working)
    1.  Restart Computer and Sign In
         Note: I had to use the on-screen keyboard option found on the Ease of Access found at the bottom left of the screen
    2.  Right Click on "My Computer" (aka "Computer" aka "This PC") and click on Properties
    3.  Click on System Protection (3rd option on the left menu)
    At this point a new System Properties window will pop up already on a System Protection tab
    4.  Click System Restore...
    5.  Choose restore point --> I had an option for "Windows Update" which was a "Critical Update"
    My computer reset the registry and my touchpad and keyboard began working again!
    When Toshiba tells you that you have Updates (Toshiba Support Driver)  IGNORE IT!
    Hope this works for you!

  • HP Pro x2 410 G1 - Touchpad not working in windows 7

    Hi all,
    I have a HP Pro x2 410 G1 which came with windows 8.1. I have rebuilt it with windows 7 (x64) and the touchpad no longer works.
    - I've checked that all devices have the latest drivers.
    - I've tried older drivers for both the chipset and touchpad.
    - checked to see if there is a way to disable/enable the touchpad (ie. hotkeys/fn keys) Cant seem to find such functionality for this model.
    Not sure what else to try....
    Thanks

  • MSI GS70 20D Touchpad not working after login when I upgraded to 8.1

    Short situation: I upgraded my laptop to windows 8.1, and the touchpad stopped working on the start/desktop screens. I could move it before I logged in, and after it would work for a few seconds, but then it would just stop. An external mouse works just fine, but I still don't want my touchpad not working.
    I looked on the MSI USA technical support page, and it said to delete the old drivers for the touchpad and download new ones. I deleted the drives, but every time I try to download the new ones, I get a window that says my touchpad isn't plugged in, and that the drive isn't compatible with my touchpad, which doesn't make sense to me because I looked up my product specifically and tried all three touchpad drivers. None of them worked.
    Now I can't use the touchpad at all because I deleted the drivers, so it would seem that the computer doesn't know it has a touchpad because it won't register the touchpad in my devices tab.
    Does anyone know what I can do to solve this? Or to at least get the touchpad to register again? I just got this computer for Christmas, I've treated it very well so it hasn't banged up against anything or been dropped or mistreated, so I cannot understand why this is happening. It worked before the 8.1 update, so I'm pretty sure the issue has something to do with that.

    UPDATE: So I managed to fix the touch pad by deleting the driver and rebooting, which is weird because I removed the driver completely and never reinstalled it, so the computer shouldn't really know it has a touch pad. But every time I reboot the computer after fixing it, the touch pad goes back to it's old problem and I need to redelete and reboot all over again.
    Also, My computer has begun to randomly freeze and not respond to anything, with one such event leading to a blue screen with a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR message. The computer has frozen a total of 6 times, at different moments; when I'm typing on microsoft word, at the login screen, even right when it starts up and the msi loading screen is up. 5 of these times have required a forced shut down, the first time the computer shut off on it's own because it ran out of battery power.
    Finally, my computer has begun to periodically for long stretches of time stopped detecting wireless networks and is asking to be plugged into an ethernet cable to connect to the internet. This has never happened to me before, and I know I haven't turned off my network sharing center.
    I'm not sure why this is all suddenly happening. It's not like I'm banging my laptop against walls. I'm very careful when I move and use my GS70, so these problems are greatly concerning to me because I just got this computer at Christmas.

  • HP Pavilion g6-1c39ca touchpad not working

    Hi, so i turned on my laptop today to find my touchpad not working, I did not change any of the settings. I am unable to enable the touchpad by tapping the cirlcle in the corner of the touchpad as it is broken. I tried to go to control panel-mouse-hardware and sound-mouse but there is no tab for device settings. After reading a couple of questions in the support forum I then downloaded the synaptic touchpad driver from hp support, but it could not be intalled correctly on my computer.  Can someone please help me with this issue.

    I grasp that your TouchPad/ClickPad has stopped working.  The round button in the upper left corner of the TouchPad is non functional.  You went to the  control panel-mouse-hardware and sound-mouse but there is no tab for device settings.
    You tried downloading the software and drivers but were unable to install them.
    Here is a link to HP Notebook PCs - Using and Configuring the TouchPad (Windows 7 and Vista) that may help.

  • T43 Touch Pad not working after Window 7 installation.

    The Touch Pad on my T43 is not working with Window 7. I have tried several drivers without success; any suggestions??
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Did you try to install system update 4.0 to get all the correct drivers?
    You can also enable/disable the touchpad in BIOS so you could doublecheck it's actually enabled. You can also enable/disable touchpad by going into the control panel, mouse and the Ultranav tab if you have the correct driver installed. Another options is to press Fn-F8 to enable/disable touchpad, but this one also require some drivers and software from Lenovo to work.

    Run this code to reproduce the issue.Which issue?
    It looks like inheritance is broken in the component hierarchy for JFrame in Windows 7 JDK 1.6.0_23-b05. The only thing remotely related to inheritance in your code snippet is the WindowListener, which does little. See camickr's advice about built-in exit management.
    EDIT - using the post title as a clue, I realize you may be talking about the component hierarchy, and whether the contentPane's background is visible through the upper layers. Instead of guessing, I'd prefer you describe your "issue" accurately (observed vs expected behavior).

  • APPLE mouse & keyboard not working with Windows (Bootcamp)

    I installed Leopard and Windows XP on my Mac Pro. The installation went very smoothly. Only problem I have is that my Apple wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on Windows (frozen) although they work fine on Leopard. I tried a Logitech wireless trackball and it works fine on both Windows and Leopard. Any suggestion?

    Thanks. I upgraded from Tiger and downloaded Bootcamp from Leopard Installation disc ( I did not have a beta version ). I then installed Windows XP SP2 ( brand new, just bought for that purpose ). Wonder if Mac wireless keyboard and mouse are compatible with Window. Everything else work beyond my expectation.

  • ITunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows - Fix??

    Hi everyone,
    I had issue after issue with the latest iTunes update (12.1.1) not working on my windows 7. It simply would not lunch when clicking on the shortcut to open.
    After a fair bit of searching I found this alternative version which seemed to do the trick and now it works:
    iTunes 12.1.1.4 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - iTunes64Setup.exe(2015-02-18)

    The "for older video cards" installer - which, like most prior "64 bit" versions of iTunes, is actually a 32 bit application with a 64 bit installer - may be a useful fallback if the full 64 bit version does not install or run correctly.  Although 12.1.1.4 is a major improvement over 12.1.0.71, there are clearly still some lurking incompatibilities with some 64 bit Windows systems/components.  It is, however, a little misleading to say that "iTunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows" - in many cases it works fine without switching to the alternative version.  I have the full 64-bit version of 12.1.1.4 running on three systems - two Windows 7 and one Windows 8.1 - no issues with either installation or operation on any of them.

    I am using Windows 7 x64.
    I am running iTunes 9.0.2.25
    I am running Mcafee.
    I can see and play music from the iTunes installation on my Windows 7 machine, but I CANNOT access the library to copy songs from this computer to other computers on my network.
    YES, I have enabled "Home Sharing" using my iTunes account. NO, I have not authorized more than 5 computers on this account.
    I believe this to be a Windows 7 related issue, as Home Sharing worked as advertised when I was using Vista (before I upgraded to Windows 7).
    I CAN set up Home Sharing on two other (host) computers in my home network and it works. These computers are XP and a MacBook Pro. I CANNOT access my Windows 7 machine x64 to COPY music from one autorized library to another. Please help!!!
    P.S. - I have attempted to get this to work by turning OFF my McAfee firewall. Windows firewall is disabled.

  • MFA not working on Windows Server 2012 R2

    Been using MFA since PF days.  Deployed it successfully many times but for some reason it's not working with Windows Auth, Terminal Services on a Win 2012 R2 DataCenter box?  The machine was successfully added to my domain PhoneFactor group, I
    can see and add the machine on the master MFA.  Services are running but when I remote in I go right through without MFA stopping me?  Any ideas?
    TIA

    6.3.0 has just been released and 2012 R2 is *still* not supported. What the hell?!?
    "Version 6.3.0 of the Azure Multi-Factor Authentication Server adds the
      following additional functionality:
    * Added one-way SMS functionality for AD FS, RADIUS and User Portal
    * Added .csv file import for OATH tokens
    * Added support to parse phone numbers in E.164 format during import
      From the directory
    * Fixed problem preventing slave servers from performing MFA if the
      master server was unavailable. This problem was found to exist in
      all 6.2.x builds. All customers running 6.2.x should upgrade to 6.3.
    * Fixed directory sync issue for recursive security groups
    * Added additional logging to AD FS adapter
    * Other minor bug fixes and security improvements
    Known Issues:
    * Windows Authentication for Terminal Services is still not supported for
      Windows Server 2012 R2"
    So they added a whole stack of other functionality, but still didn't get around to taking a look at this bug. I'm stunned. Is there any sort of timeline on fixing this, or is 2012 R2 just going to remain unsupported forever?
