No touch is being recognized when I touch the screen(s)

Touch screen malfunction can occur due to following reasons:

  • Working Condition/ environment of the Touch Screen; temperature, humidity, etc.
  • Loose or disconnected hardware.
  • Damaged or wrong Drivers.

Step1: Make sure the touch screen is away from damp or non-normal-temperature conditions, fluorescent lights, or appliances interfering with it. If it is, please go to Step2.

Step2: Open the Control Panel Troubleshooting. Click Hardware and Sound > Hardware and Devices. Click Next and run the wizard through. The tool will
automatically detect issues and then repair them. If Step2 does not fix it, go to Step3.
