touchpad

In various forums, including this one, I've seen users post questions about the same problem. But none of the solutions works on my Gateway laptop PC with Windows 7 and Elan pointing device. Here's the problem: My mousepad clicks without my clicking it. It has sent e-mails I wasn't ready to...

Never mind, I looked at it again, and it is a touchpad and not touchscreen. Maybe not such a big deal when it comes to Windows 8.

Hi when browsing, the browsers (chrome and IE9) freeses frequently a few secs. It doesn't repond on keyboard or touchpad actions: Typing google autofill starts to auto fill, gives no extra characters when I type for a few sec and then gives the letters that a had typed (not all) The same with...

I noticed after I did the latest Win 7 update, that I started having trouble that same day with the pointer on my computer. I first noticed where the finger pad is, you left click, to scroll up and down a page. It stopped working correctly. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. It also happens...

Since a few days the left touchpad button on my Samsung notebook does not work any more. Double tipping on the touchpad itself (as replacement action) or using the left mouse button works fine. So what error can it be? How can I find out the reason? No mechanical damage is...

It's really stupid. Sometimes, I'm doing my own thing. Sometimes, I need to disable the touchpad, so I can avoid interference from my typing. (I'm running Windows 7 Professional, on a laptop.). Anyways, when the event occurs, the cursor jumps randomly across the screen (Even if I don't do...

Hi, I've recently disabled the zoom gestures on my tuchpad only to find that they dont get disabled in Internet Explorer 9. If i disable all gesture functionality (not only the zoom gestures) then it works and the zoom function does not work in IE9. I can't seem to get the zoom gestures...

Touch pad on laptop Hoovering over an item opens it. What happened to double click. I have restored defaults in folder options, mouse properties and ease of accsess center. External mouse via usb port works perfect? Driving me crazy:cry_smile:

Okay, so I ran McAfee Stinger and Malwarebytes so my system is clean now and I'm not having any issues with alerts, programs closing, etc. that come along with the blaster worm bug. So I don't need help with removing it. BUT, I have an HP laptop running Windows 7 and the keyboard and touchpad...

I had to send my Dell Inspiron 1420 off to get the Nvidia Chip replace. They pulled the mother board and fixed it and reinstalled it. When I got it back I had to reload the HD with W7-64 due to wiping it thinking that was the problem instead of the chip. It had XP before if that matters. Now my...

Hewlett-Packard launches the TouchPad this week, but expect the company to build Windows 8 tablets once it ships next year. Fast Company asked HP's PC boss Phil McKinney if they'd ship a Windows 8 tablet. Source: Yahoo! News

For Hewlett-Packard's TouchPad tablet, which heads to market on Friday, the company avoided using Android at all costs . Well, actually, at a very specific cost: HP spent $1.2 billion last year to acquire Palm, which helped develop the TouchPad's slick software, WebOS. HP's tablet strategy --to...

Hello ! About two weeks ago, my girlfriend's laptop (Dell Inspiron 1721) running 7 x64 had the mouse poorly responding. Right after the boot, swiping on the touchpad barely moved it on the screen...just inch by inch...:confused: The system loads fine, if I press the Windows key for example it...

So, here's the story. One day, while I was browsing the internet, I noticed that my touchpad (yes, I'm using a laptop) won't work. I tried reinstalling the driver for the said hardware but it won't work. The pointer moves when I move my finger on the touchpad but it won't respond when I tap the...

Hello, this seems to be an unusual problem that's been becoming progressively worse, which seems to suggest it may be a hardware issue. At first, my touch pad stopped working after hours of use. I could make the cursor move, but never the direction I moved my fingers. Now, it happens within...

I have an Acer Aspire 7535G laptop and a few days ago my keyboard stopped working. It works when I type in the password to log in to the OS, but after that the keyboard stops working. My quick fix is to uninstall the driver and let it reinstall its driver, which works and I can use my keyboard...

So I've got a bit of a problem. (Hopefully this is the right forum to post this in!) I'm using a Samsung netbook, if it helps, and no mouse -- just the touchpad. My problem is that sometimes, my cursor will just...jam. Like, stick in some spot on the screen. When it does that, my keyboard will...

Does anyone know if there is a way on Windows 7 to emulate two-finger scrolling for devices that are not multi-touch capable? The Linux Synaptics driver has an option that enables this. It usually just works right out of the box. ref: Link Removed due to 404 Error (pages cpsc ucalgary...
