Touchpad not working in Windows 7 but works in 10
I own ASUS laptop R558UR. It came with DOS, so I installed Windows 10 because ASUS provided drivers for only Windows 10. (At that time the touchpad was working even without any drivers.) I really didn't like Windows 10, so I installed Windows 7 on the laptop. I managed to get and install driver for every device and its working fine. (Much much better than Windows 10 ) There's just one problem. I'm not able to install driver for my touchpad and the touchpad is not at all working. Here's how Device Manager shows it (see the image below).
I have tried installing many drivers (like Synaptic, Elantech, ASUS Smart Gesture) but none of them works. Some drivers got installed but didn't work. Some drivers gave some error saying device not supported during the installation. I even force installed them by adding my device ID in the list of supported devices. I also tried Windows Update and go nothing.
I searched many forums and saw some posts where people are facing the same issue but unfortunately none of those threads were solved. You are my last hope, please help!
