    In System Information > Components > Problem devices is this error:

    ASUS Touchpad ACPI\ETD0108\4&400688E&0 This device cannot start.


    I've tried to update the Touchpad driver from device manager with online driver, local driver, I've changed the EnableCursorSuppression from Regedit (I watched this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G89eeuSHvU) but all was in vain.

    In Device manager, the Device status is:

    This device cannot start. (Code 10) The specified request is not a valid operation for the target device.

    Driver provider: ASUS

    Driver date: 07.03.2017

    Driver version: 1.0.0.296

    Digital signer: Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility Publisher

    ASUS Touchpad not working

    Hi Cyril,

    There's a possibility that you're getting this concern due to an out-dated driver. For us to better assist you, we'd like to ask a few questions:

    • Were there any recent changes prior to the issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    In the meantime, we suggest that you check if ASUS Touchpad is enabled on your device. To do that, you may follow these steps:

    • Type Settingson the search bar and press Enter.
    • Select Devices.
    • Click Mouse & touchpad.
    • Select Additional mouse options on the right pane.
    • Choose Device Settings (some called ELAN) pane, check Yes/No of Touchpad. If
      No, click Enable and select OK.

    Let us know how it goes.

  3. touchpad gestures two finger scroll not working Asus 501

    Hi there,


    1. Go to N501VW | ASUS Global Downloads
    2. Download the latest ATK - ATKPackage driver
    3. Download the latest TouchPad - ASUS Smart Gesture (Touchpad Driver)
    4. Uninstall both the Touchpad driver and the Asus ATK package driver.
    5. Reboot
    6. First install ATKPackage driver (IMPORTANT to do this FIRST)
    7. Reboot
    8. Then install the TouchPad driver (may need to reboot)
    9. Test if all is working as it should


    I had this same issue with my Asus UX305 when I upgraded to Windows version 1803 and doing the above steps solved the issue for me.

    touchpad gestures two finger scroll not working Asus 501

    Thanks. This procedure worked. Though, as noted in the conversation below, the current driver 4021 does not work with my configuration. I had a copy of 405 so I used that for the re-install and now touchpad is working again.

    Something must have thrown it off so that I needed a re-install but the latest driver doesn't work.

    Thanks again.
