1. A resetting system, comprising:
a driver that controls a touchscreen, the driver including:
a driver communication interface that defines a bus for transferring a transfer signal;
a driver controller;
an on-screen display (OSD) device that generates an OSD signal representing a predetermined reset image in response to a predetermined event, the OSD signal superimposing over pixels and graphics data to be rendered on the touchscreen; and

a host that transfers the transfer signal to or from the driver, the host including a host communication interface that defines the bus for transferring the transfer signal to or from the driver,
wherein the OSD device generates the OSD signal representing the reset image if touch points constitute a predetermined reset gesture as determined by the driver controller, and the OSD signal then replaces the transfer signal to show the reset image on the touchscreen, followed by resetting the driver by the host.
