I just got my m15x today, and I must say that I'm very pleased with everything expect the touch controls. They worked fine until I installed crysis and plugged in my mouse, keyboard, and headphones, at which point the touch controls stopped working. I tried unplugging my USB devices and rebooting, but they still don't work. I tried searching for a solution to this problem and found that the new bios supposedly "fixed" it, but some users are saying that it did not. I am positive I have the new bios. So my questions are, does anyone have this problem, and were you able to fix it? And also, is there a way to activate stealth mode other than through the touch controls?![]()
Thanks for any help guys.

Unfortunately no, stealth mode is tied that button.
As for this problem, I don't think we've ever had someone report that before. The touch controls do connect via a USB interface (interally) but I've never heard of USB devices conflicting with each other. -
could be a loose connection.
mine didnt work from out of the box. onto tech support for 2 hours on first day.new drivers and patch didnt help.
next day tried to load the external sound card and that didnt work either so pulled it out in frustration and it crashed the computer. re booted and strangely enough all the touch controls worked.
try dropping the m15 from a great hight, that might work
i was tempted a couple of times. -
I actually got that very advice from a Mac tech years ago. Well, not a "great height", but he told me to hold it 4 inches off the desk and drop it. So I did and wouldn't you know - it worked!
