alrighty, I pulled alot of them from slimware, to disable the touchpad you need quickset, 

ok so heres a list of ones im using now

KT7XG - acceleramator 

W2TF8 - this is the touchpad driver thats currently out (sadly there isnt a update for it)

R292835 - Quickset for the L702X this controls the disable or enable of the touchpad as far as I know its version is 11.0.8

61X2W - is of course the usb 3.0 host controller which im not sure is needed at all in 10 since 8 and 10 has usb 3.0 drivers from the get go

intel's chipset driver 10.0.22 (A00) October 22, 2014 could also fix the touchpad driver I would think

these are the main ones I got installed so maybe that should help yall I know mine is working perfectly! it isnt the touchpad driver though.. if I was yall try installing that R292835 quickset first and see how it does, mind ya I installed all of these in 7 so idk if they will prevent install in 10 or not.. when I upgraded it kept them in place..

also slimware utilites driver program is very helpful thats where i got some of those from not to advertise another site on here or anything like that https://www.slimwareutilities.com/slimdrivers.php but anyways let me know how it goes and if yall still need them ill find the appropriate links to them for ya

Quick suggestion on the slowness issue...replace your C:\ drive with an SSD. Doesn't cost much, and you'll love the performance improvement.

One of the things that I noticed was that the fans are running more. I did a lot of looking around to see if there was extra stuff running that I didn't need, vacuumed out dust, etc. Helped to a small degree, but the fans are still on higher and more than Windows 8.1. Just ordered a cooling pad to see if that will keep the laptop fans off more. We'll see.

Otherwise, I really like Windows 10. Works great on my Lenovo K450e desktop...of course Lenovo makes Windows 10 drivers available, which is very helpful. The only problem I'm having is this expensive Dell laptop and the fact that Windows Update keeps wanting to replace the Windows 7/8 drivers from Dell with generic drivers, screwing up the audio and video capabilities.

I thought I had figured out how to keep Windows Update from crunching the Dell drivers, but it turns out that didn't work completely. My newest attempt is to leave the WIndows Update generic audio driver update installed, and install the Dell OEM driver on top of it. This is working, and hopefully because the Windows Update generic driver is listed as being installed, Windows Update will stop trying to install it. Got my fingers crossed.

what i did to ease temps and fan is basically turn off the turbo boost with the i7, you do that by changing your power settings and on battery and on charge instead of allowing those run 100% for cpu just put it on 99% and it wont over clock thus your temps and everything else will stay quite cool

I am just very upset that so far Dell has left the XPS 17 L702X owners out in the cold for the update to Windows 10. I thought Dell support was WAY better than that.

Hello and good afternoon

I did not read your whole article but caught the Touch Pad issue.

Go to Device Manager and "drop down" the Mouse then right click on the Touch Pad and uninstall the driver.

You can always extract the driver from support.dell.com "drivers and diagnostics."

Food for thought.

Hello and good afternoon

I called Microsoft and the following information will load Windows 10 immediately:

Enter in a google search engine: getmediacreationtool and run it.

Then you will see create iso file for different PC. Save it to Desktop.

Click Desktop Shortcut and download iso file.

For some reason I was able to download Windows 10 before saving the iso file to desktop?

We do not have to wait for Dell or anyone else and besides why wait for weeks until you can download Windows 10.

touchpad driver has been foundhttp://downloads.dell.com/FOLDER03189486M/1/Input_Driver_H3H95_WN32_19.0.15.2_A00.EXE

this enables new ui and win10 app gestures, by the way quickset I believe controls the touchpad being disabled.. you need 11.0.24 of it to work and that also allows ya to have the buttons up at top.. now I'm just searching for the right audio driver

It's disgraceful that Dell are not supporting Windows 10  for this model. I've upgraded two XPS1702x laptops. One the webcam did not work and the other no internet connection via Ethernet cable or wireless and in the end had to install windows 8.1, on this laptop to get it working,.for which dell are supporting! DISGRACEFUL DELL.

There was a "webcam issue" with Windows 10 RS1 when it was initially released. Microsoft have now patched it.
