If that is so, that would go a long way to explaining why both the 32 bit graphics drivers and touchpad drivers seem to be having a problem communicating with the hardware.

I'm just thinking, I've always assumed that a '64 bit machine' is that only because it has a 64 bit processor.ДЄm I right in that, or can other hardware be 64 bit as well? One possible issue, and I'm probably being very silly here, is that the machine is actually a 64 bit machine, although I'm running 32 bit OSes on it. When I unpacked it there was a huge number of drivers in there, from many different PC manufacturers.ДЄll those drivers were in there presumably, and I tried all the likely looking ones with no success. I actually downloaded with SDIO the whole touchpad package that said it was compatible with my machine, which was huge (several GB!) Notice the version numbers in the tooltip. Weird, for some reason i can't take a screenshot of SDIO, it just captures the underlaying windows, lol. If we get into a long exchange about the touchpad, I will change the thread title to reflect this. if it proves impossible to find a driver that will allow me to change the touchpad settings, especially disabling 'tap to click', there is probably no point in carrying on with XP on this machine anyway, as I really don't want to use it the way it is at the moment. If it's OK, and I realise this is off topic for this thread as it stands, I would like to concentrate on trying to get the touchpad working properly before going back to the graphics problems.ДЄs I said earlier.

I suspect it's a bit like the graphics problem, the drivers are just not communicating with the hardware properly.

I have tried directly editing the registry entries for the Elan software with other drivers, when the normal control panel is not working, but changing the settings never makes any difference.

Thanks, I've tried so many touchpad drivers that I really don't know whether I've tried that particular one, but I will give it a go anyway! No, I think the time has come to admit defeat here, and accept that some things just aren't possible with XP now. I can't imagine that the same thing wouldn't happen if it was being installed on every boot.ДЇundamentally, it's not communicating with the hardware properly, and even if it could be got to work as it should even the once, I suspect it would always be very unstable. As soon as I change that it tries to change the resolution, and then BSODs. I've done more experimenting, and if I disable the display adapter so I can boot into normal mode, and then enable it, it enables OK, but is still shown as being in 640x480 mode in the Display Properties. None of the 32 bit versions have information about the hardware.ДЄs for the graphics driver, I don't think the option to uninstall/reinstall it on every boot will work either, quite apart from the fact that it will horribly slow down the process! Most of them are 64 bit, as it's a 64 bit machine. I also found a lot of chipset drivers, but again, none of them will work.

I suspect the touchpad on my machine is designed only to work with Asus Smart Gesture, which has no version that will install on XP. How people use them with that switched on is quite beyond me, the constant unintentional clicks drive me mad! As far as I'm concerned, the touchpad is unusable unless the 'tap to click' function can be disabled at very least. Either the control panel is completely blank, or only a few settings are shown, none of which actually work. They all install, but none produce a usable control panel so you can't actually change any settings. I used SDIO to find the touchpad drivers, there were a huge number of options from many PC manufacturers, a huge package to download, and while I didn't try all of them as it would have taken many hours, I didn't find a single one that actually worked properly of the ones I did try.
