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

    Thanks for providing information Kemal. If's good to know there's an update about this thread. 

    I did try your solution on my ATIV XE500t1c, it doesn't work for me. The screen still can't respond to my finger touch but the pen is ok. The exclamation mark on "IC2 HID device" from device manager still exist. May be that's because we are not having the same device.

    Anyway it's still good to know there's a solution for others. May be it'll work on others. Thanks.

    regards,

    Here's what it looks like:

    Strange. I have two IC2 HID device but just one exclamation mark with it. My situation is that the touch screen can't reply to my finger touch, but the pen still work. I think it won't be hardware failure as it seems the touch screen is still functioning. Just can't reply to finger touch...
