I have Samsung ativ pc 500t. IT was shipped with Windows 8 and worked perfectly. Last Thursday I upgrade it to Windows 8 Pro and few hours later on Friday it lost touchscreen capability partially. I can use stylus (s pen), but I cannot use fingers. I attached the device info about trh device I suspect should be related to touchscreen by fingers.

All help would be very appriciated. Thanks, David

Hello there,

I use Samsung ATIV XE700T and Win 8.

It happens to me too after I uninstall the current Wacom driver (7.1.0-8 -Win8) and then install (7.0.9-5 -Win 7).

So why I installed Win 7 driver if I have Win 8 as OS?

Well, my stylus pen wasn't working on Adobe Flash Professional (was working anywhere else perfectly). So after I installed the Win 7 driver it started to work on Flash perfect too.

I am not sure if you already discovered but if you plug in any usb device, finger touch works for a while then again stops working. And the same thing happens when you plug out the device you plugged in.

As I am an illustrator, using pen on Flash for drawing is a priority for me so I didn't re-install the driver for Win8 again.

Solution:


1. Go to "Control Panel -> Programs" and uninstall the current driver (ISD Tablet).

2. Restart your computer.

3. Download and install this driver.

4. Restart your computer.


You are done!

Regards,

Kemal KAYA

Hi, it was definitely hardware problem in my case. Returned back, they simply changed everything and now is working like a breeze without any issues. BTW I did what you suggest. Touchscreen was not working even during boot, I did reinstall Windows this way at least 5 times.

All the best,

David

    I've noticed this IC2 HID device issue.  I've found that disabling and re-enabling brings the touchscreen back.  It's a real pain, though.

    Same here too. My device is XT500T1C-A03HK. Bought around a week and work fine. Suddenly the screen stop replying my finger touch, but the spen is functioning normally. Have searched so many forum & even contacted with Samsung technical support Hong Kong, seems useless for now. I even tried to reset the whole pc. Completely reset! Which I have waited for almost 6 hours and after that, nothing changed. S pen work, but not finger. 

    I found that in my device manager, there's one "IC2 HID device" has an exclaimation mark on it, stating that it do not initiated successfully. Seems that's the main problem.

    Still waiting for help.
