Can you Private Message me your Service Tag on the system? Or at least let me know the model number and OS the system is running. Also, does your other system show the touch screen in Device Manager correctly, or are both not showing this?
ok, I updated my BIOS driver and it seems to have reversed everything that was wrong. Why on earth would an update completely erase such an important driver??
When this happens, try reconnecting the cable that plugs into the mainboard from the panel. If that doesn't solve the problem, the display assembly needs to be replaced.
Thanks for updating the thread with your posts, hopefully the reason the BIOS update fixed this was because with all of the Windows updates it allowed the hardware to be found easier once Windows loaded etc, however I do not see any notes like this so it could just be a coincidence (but hopefully not).
Alright. I was so excited that it was finally fixed. After dinner I opened the laptop lid from sleep mode, my touch function did not work again. I checked the Device manager did not have HID Compliant Touch Screen and my system information says No Touch or Pen support for this display.
About 5 minutes into writing this to you, my screen blinked and everything now works again. Including device manager saying touch screen and system info saying that I have touch support with 10 touch points.
Do you have any clue why it would go in and out like that?!
Thanks for the update, can you go ahead and private message me the Service Tag on the system? As per ejn63, it sounds like it might be a bad display/touch interface, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything.

Hi Brad,
I have a Dell Inspiron 5559 Touch Screen. Does that help?
My other system does show the touch screen function under the system information and under the Device Manager.

Let us know if you have any further issues.
