#313 This doesn't help in my case. Literally whatever I tried did't help till now. I'm testing the Win 10 Pro for the last two days, just to see if the same thing will happen, and yes, it does happen even on Win 10. Freezes occur less frequently, and are easily solvable by right then left button click on touchpad. It freezes whether Nvidia or integrated Intel graphics are in use. It seems to me that this "elantech" touchpad is one @#&* of a touchpad, or the Nvidia card presence alone is making touchpad acts weird. Because, and I noticed that recently, even while in BIOS or live CD environment, touchpad freezes sometimes.
