I have an Asus K501UW-AB78 Laptop that has an ELAN1000 touchpad in it. I have tried any kext I could find for a touchpad but I could not get it to work. Is this trackpad supported with Hackintosh? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Many newer laptops use I2C for the trackpad. There is work-in-progress kexts available, but definitely not done (you will probably need developer skills just to begin using it).

Please provide complete details in your profile/signature
(Profile/Settings link in upper right corner of this site)

Mobo: manufacturer/model + bootloader(Clover/Chameleon/Chimera)
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
Mobo: HP ProBook 4540s (Clover)
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx), and graphics capabilities. For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.

Note: When specifying your bootloader, if using Clover legacy, please be sure to specify "Clover legacy"). Specifying "Clover" will be assumed as "Clover UEFI"
