E6510 Touchpad Inop

Hi all. For second time in a month, touchpad quit working. The first time, I messed with it for 3 days with no success. Then one day I just started up, and it was back. This time, tried a number of fixes including updating the drivers (wouldn't take it because it was current). Tried to uninstall/ reinstall, but weirdly, I had to reboot twice for it to do anything. Shut down a third time to go out. When I came back, I cannot find any trace of the touchpad anywhere. It looks like it may have uninstalled completely. So i went to Dell/ support to see if i could find any way to reinstall it but it says my device is not compatible with any OS from Win 10 and newer, Of course I'm running 10. So i can't even access anything. So my issue is how to reinstall the touchpad (not sure if I need software, just the driver, etc.) A bit exasperating. anyone have any clues?
