If your ASUS laptop touchpad stops working after sleep mode, try this solution:
Follow ASUS website steps up to "Enable and reinstall drivers in Device Manager". Skip system restore/reset steps to avoid data loss.
After completing those steps, if your touchpad works temporarily but stops after sleep mode, try this: a. Open Device Manager b. Under "Human Interface Devices", right-click "ASUS Precision Touchpad" c. Click "Update driver" > "Browse my computer for drivers" > "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer" d. Select the oldest version: "HID compliant touchpad" e. Click Next and complete installation
This method solved my ASUS touchpad issues that persisted for 6 months, even after BIOS reset, driver reinstallation, and Windows reset. The touchpad now works consistently, even after sleep mode.
Note: Ensure both "ASUS Precision Touchpad" and "I2C HID Device" are visible and working in Device Manager before applying this fix.
