    Hi!

    I've had a Asus X72VN Computer for a couple of years now and for the first time I reinstalled it. Everything works fine except my Multimedia TouchPad that isn't "working at all" (I can use it as a normal touch pad, but I have a real mouse for that!)! I can't press the mode button! I tried to download the latest drivers from ASUS, but I only get Synaptics LuxPad v.7 and that is obviousley not the right one..
    Anyone got a good idea how to get my multimedia touchpad working again?

    Thx

    I believe you have to enable the the multimedia features in your mouse properties. Also, try use the driver from the Asus website.

    After some searching and some more searching I found it under Vista x64 drivers... It wasn't called Multimedia touch, but Dual Touch.. Obviousley there were some never, but worse drivers for Win7 but the drivers for Vista worked for Win7 so I'm happy :)
