Hi,

Have you tried reinstalling the touchpad drivers? If not, go to Device manager, right click the touchpad, go to Properties and uninstall the driver, reboot and let Windows install the driver.

In the device manager, the term touchpad is not used. it is showing "Mice and other Pointing devices". I doubt whether it is gesture supported or not?

Hi,

Sorry, you need to expand Mice and otherpointing devices to get to touchpad.

fahmad

Click the arrow left of Mice and other pointing devices.

Hi,
Go to BIOS(press F2 as soon as you press Power button), go to main tab and check whether the Touchpad is in Basic mode, if so switch to Advanced mode.
