touchpad scroll problem
The scroll area on my touchpad isn't working? Every time I touch the side to scroll it just moves the pointer instead of scrolling. What can I do?

I also have this problem. After installing Vista the touchad did not scroll. I installed both the XP drivers and the generic last drivers and it still won't work in any program. The touchpad is a Synaptics one, and was designed to use virtual scrolling, and other features that also are'nt available. Can someone please help me?morningburst139

I have an Inspiron 6000 and neither do the XP drivers work, nor the synaptics drivers, which by the way warn, since they are generic a loss of advanced features can happen.- To enable scroll, right click on the touchpad icon in the lower right hand corner of your screen and select properties. This should open the touchpad control panel. There will be several tabs I forget the particular one but one will have the selections to enable you to scroll. If you have problems make another post and I will give fuller details.
