I have an E402WA-GA001T model, powered by AMD E2-6110. Touchpad works on Windows 10, but didn't work on Windows 8.1.
I want to ask this because these prosessor just designed to work flawlessly on Windows 8.1, old release date and old socket too.

What do you mean by it "didn't work" on Windows 8.1? No response at all? Gestures were missing? From what I see on Asus' support page, it looks like this system was intended for Windows 10, in which case you are probably lacking proper driver support for Windows 8(.1).
Actually all driver works correctly, except touchpad. No respond at all since starting clean instalation of Windows 8.1. So I used external mouse to clean install Windows 8.1.

I can only base "proper" driver support via Asus' support page for the model you listed. For driver sets, they only list Windows 10 and "Other." If it's just a touchpad driver issue, then you can try modifying the Win 10 driver or search for an alternate/generic one.

I just tried to install any Asus Smart Gesture or PTP for Windows 8.1, but it is still get nothing. My touchpad is ITE Tech., not ELAN that the PTP driver say.
