Hi,

Welcome to the Community. I suggest you try uninstalling and reinstalling your touchpad drivers. To uninstall, click on start, right click on computer, click on properties, click on device manager, click on the symbol next to pointing devices, right click on the Touchpad Driver, and click on Uninstall, click ok to confirm. Once its removed do not restart your computer, log on to support.dell.com, click on Home users, drivers and downloads, enter your service tag ( or choose by system model ) to find drivers for your system. Download and install the touchpad drivers under Input. Restart your computer.

To check if the touchpad buttons are enabled, click on start, control panel, mouse, click on the Touchpad Image ( it may take some time to appear ) to bring up the touchpad settings, under Buttons check if its on or off.

Thank you.

Hi,

If you have dropped your laptop the damage can be worse. You will need to have Accidental Coverage to have this fixed. I suggest you first reseat your touchpad flex cable first to see if that helps. Use the below link for help. Page 29.
