  1. Enabling Touchscreen


    I have a new Dell inspiron convertible laptop. It changes to Tablet mode easily BUT nothing happens when I touch the screen. I've looked at all sorts of online help but no-one answers this question, they all assume the touchscreen should just work when tablet mode is on. I'm wondering if there is something I've missed, or is the machine faulty?Can anyone help?

    :)

    Hi Debora,

    There could be a number of factors as to why you are experiencing touchscreen issue. One possible cause could be an outdated driver. I would like to know more about your concern. Kindly verify the changes made on the computer prior to the issue.

    Meanwhile, you have to make sure that touchscreen is enabled. To do this, follow the steps below:

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type Device Manager, then select
      Device Manager.
    • Expland Human Interface Devices and select HID-compliant
      touch screen.
    • Select the Action tab at the top of the window. Select
      Enable
      .

      For your reference, check this article.

    If the issue persists, I suggest that you run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter. To do this, refer to the steps below:

    • On the Start menu, type Troubleshoot and then hit
      Enter.
    • Under Find and fix other problems, select Hardware and Devices. Click
      Run as administrator.
