Windows 8.1 touch screen not working?

Is there a touch screen bug in the final version of Windows 8.1 or is there a particular setup I need to do to get touch to work reliably?

I just installed it on my Fujitsu T902 and sometimes the touch screen responds and sometimes it doesn't. The same also applies for the digitizer.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community. I understand that you have an issue with re-installing touch screen driver. I will surely help you to fix this issue.

What is the make and model of the laptop?

You may try to download and install latest touch screen driver from the computer manufacturer website and check if it helps.

    Well, I don't know if this answers your question or maybe it might help someone else. But mine has been and still is doing it. Mine goes in and out. I tried to do a "Recovery Point" and hoped the would fix it, but no, it didn't. But what I did find out was that it is the Lid of my laptop itself. Once it blinked out when I was closing the lid, and then it happened a different time when I opened the lid. So, I all so gently flexed the lid and, the screen responded. And every-time I do that my touch screen works. I haven't replaced the lid yet, but at least I THINK/HOPE that might solve the problem.

    Tell me if that helps you. Cross my fingers for you. Good luck.
