ES1-512-C8 touchpad causes screen to turn off

Happinessstan

Odd one and have managed to isolate the issue - touchpad causes the screen to turn off. Deactivated the touchpad and voila, screen stays on.

Any idea how I now maintain a working screen AND touchpad?

Thanks

Hello,

 

Do you use Windows 8.1?

It is, hopefully that's a good start?
