Touchpad gestures not working AN515 Nitro 5 Windows 10

ProfRich

Hi,

I've tried downloading and installing the touchpad drivers direct from Asus. Under Mice in Device settings the only driver shown reads 'PS/2 Port compatible pointing device'. I have tried clicking update driver and I've tried uninstalling that driver (it auto returns on reboot).

Touchpad works fine but gestures don't function.

Hi,
Go to BIOS settings(press F2 as soon as you press the Power button), go to Main tab and switch Touchpad mode from Basic to Advanced.

Thanks you. I've been looking for something for days   
Finally got something useful
I was a bit annoyed because it's my first good laptop. Had an intel pentium with 2gb ram and integrated graphics PC.

Thank you brummyfan2! The bios settings help me too. Any other solution with drivers etc was not helpful so far. Now my touchpad is working fine on the Nitro 5!

Hello There,

I have done something to fix the "gestures not working" problem. let me share it with you.

1. Enter the Bios setting by press f2 while restarting.
2. Aftet entering the Bios setting "Press Ctrl + S" which will un-hide the hidden option. you may find the TouchPad option there.
3. If TouchPad appeared, there will be two options PS2 and I2C. Select "I2C". I2C is newer that allows for multi-touch gestures.
4. Then Save and Exit.

Mine Work fine after selecting the I2C.
