Does this touchpad work well with windows 8?

Windows 8 works best with a touch screen which this laptop does not have. That being said, the touchpad works fine with windows 8. I have had this computer for about four months and have nothing but good things to report.

no problem with the touchpad. I'm very happy with Adesso products .... i have a couple of their keyboards.... and they are fantastic

No it's not. But I don't feel like windows 8 is a bother because the touchpad gestures are actually nice with it. Just takes some getting used to because there are features that allow you to switch from screen to screen (app to app) but limitations like you can't flip from one google chrome window to another popped out window

I've used it with windows 8 and windows 8.1. As far as I can tell, the mouse performs top knotch.

Hey Thomas, are you currently using this gamepad on windows 8.1? Are you having any issues with that?

None at all. It still does not support gestures for Windows 8. That being said, you get the basics on each. Left click, right click, and touch sensitive scrolling.

It works fine with Windows 8 - any USB keyboard would work. This one also has the start button which is nice for switching between the start screen and the desktop

I haven't had any problems with my touchpad. And I've had my ENVY laptop for about a year or so.

It works fine for me with Windows 8. The worst part for me was updating the software that came with it.

Yes. Windows 8 does not require the touch screen to function but is designed to work with one. You can just as easily use your mouse and keyboard for typical functions.

I'm sorry I don't use Windows 8. But I checked with Windows XP and 7 works very well. Unless MS changed its design, usually it should work well.. This is my other device experience.

I'm not a fan of Windows 8, but when used with a touchscreen (which it was designed for) it works well. You can load 7, but expect some difficulty.

I bought this touchpad for my windows 8 computer and had many difficulties with it because of the gestures settings.I would suggest returning this keypad and buying a more generic keypad. I wish I could be of more help.
