Any word when drivers for the touchpad will be available? I purchased my windows 7 inspirion the end of September and updated on release date for windows 8 ... NOT happy about my touchpad not working correctly any more :(

Hi JessicaScherer,

It can be upsetting when technical issues on the computer become recurrent. Allow me an opportunity to solve this issue.

Check the status of touchpad in safe mode:

  • Hold the Shift button and mash the F8 key, this will sometimes boot you into the new advanced “recovery mode”.
  • Click on the Troubleshoot option
  • Select Advanced Options
  • Now choose the Windows Startup Settings option, by the looks of things we were never meant to find Safe Mode.
  • Finally hit the Restart button.

When your PC reboots you will be able to boot into Safe Mode .

If the touchpad shows the same behavior in safe mode, try updating the Touchpad Driver from the below mentioned link:

Awaiting your response!
