Dell P55F Touchscreen Not Working

[anochsdrew]

The touchscreen on my Dell Inspiron laptop is non-functioning, its a newer device and all the basic troubleshooting methods have been unsuccessful. Any tips I could try would be greatly appreciated!

Some things to try if your touchscreen doesn't work...

1. Restart the computer. Sometimes that is all that it needs.

2. Wipe off the display with a soft, clean cloth. Yes, sometimes it is just that.

3. Go to "Start" and in the search box type "Calibrate the screen for pen or touch input". Choose the top result. In this new screen click "Setup" and follow the instructions.

4. Go to "Control Panel" and then "Device Manager". Select the "Monitors" section and right click on your monitor. Check the information for the touch screen and make sure it is "enabled".

5. Repeat step 4, but instead choose "Update driver software" from the right-click menu.
