Good day, My Packard bell touch pad is not working. if i go to settings and then mouse & touch pad. it should give me a optional/advanced setting. And its not giving me that option. Please help me

    NO PB model stated, some laptops
    NO COUNTRY STATE, TO USA FORUM THAT HAS NO PB SALES SINCE 2000.
    your pad is bad or the unstateed OS has a corrupted driver for the pad
    or kids play with the setting and messed them up.
    the advanced setting is an option, no found on many laptops and is grayed out.
    if all settings act wrong, the driver is bad.
    mostly. but cables can fall off the pad inside.

SOURCE: PACKARD BELL EASYNOTE MV35-202 keyboard and mouse pad won't work

The first thing to do is my computer properties see if your keyboard and mouse are showing in there
If they are you need to update the drivers.
If they are not showing then I would suggest going to control panel and add new hardware installing that way
Try using a standard mouse instead of usb
If you cannot get on try restarting in safemode to correct your problem.
Or if you have a cd that came with the mouse and keyboard reinstall it.
Let me know if this helped also did you reinstall the same version of windows

SOURCE: dell inspiron I6400 touch pad is not working

Unless there is not a hardware switch and the only manufacturer that I know of that did that was Compaq/HP about 5 or so years ago. Typically there are no drivers to be installed for a mouse (touch pad) as a generic set is in the driver library of the operating system. 9 times out of 10 it is a hardware failure. With that being said, if it has warranty send it in, if it does not, (although it may just be a loose connection or the touch pad itself) most repair shops are going to run anywhere from 150 - 300 dollars just to crack it open. Best option is to get a small USB mouse, unless you just really want the touch pad.

SOURCE: vertical scrolling not working

you can activate this by
1. going to the control panel on your vista machine, make sure you are in classic view
(2) double click the mouse icon.
(3) From here you will select the "Device Settings" tab,
(4) make sure your Synaptic Pointing device is highlighted and then click the settings button located directly below the "port" column, this will bring up properties for this device.
(5) With all categories in the left hand column collapsed, select "Virtual Scrolling" here is where you will find the box that needs to be checked to enable vertical and/or horizontal scrolling.
(6) make sure the "Enable Vertical Scrolling" box is checked.
(7) don't forget to hit apply!

SOURCE: touch pad is disabled and cannot enable it

There will be a function button on the keyboard to turn it on and off, look at all the f1 f2 etc keys and look for a mousepad symbol and press fn + that button.

Upside down on screen + touch pad frozen

Attach a mouse , an USB external device. Go into the display settings, find the orientation screen, you should be able to correct the orientation thereAs for the mouse pad, enter device manager and ensure the dievice is there and is enabled. If is appears okay hover the mouse over the mouse pad listing, *I am assuming the external mouse works okay,( and right click on it to bring up options then select properties.
Then highlight the update driver button and search for a new one
Hopefully this should remedy the problem

Disable touchpad

Hi
look for a FN + some key (F3-F12) combination to turn the touch pad off, there can also be a button next to the power button to switch touchpad on and off.
You can also try to disable it using windows itself by right clicking the touchpad software (by the system clock )and in it's settings look for an option to deactivate the internal touchpad.
Hope this helps.

The touch pad will not scroll

Try going to Control Panel - Hardware and sound - mouse. Once you have the menu for the mouse open, go to device settings. Click settings, and all of the advanced controls for the functions of your mouse pad can be found there. Once in advanced settings, you should be able to enable the scroll function.

My hp 4520s probook's mouse pad got locked accidentally, and it's not unlocking by double tapping on the light button on the mouse pad. please help me with this asap.

First, try double tapping the light again. You may have just mis-tapped.

Next try restarting the laptop. Certain laptops re-enable the track pad on restart so long as a USB mouse isn't connected.

If that fails, navigate to the Mouse Settings on your PC and re-enable it there. If you have a USB mouse you can use that. If not, you can use the keyboard. Windows Key will launch the Start Menu, arrow keys can highlight options, Enter will click on them, Control+Tab and Control+Shift+Tab will switch tabs (in a window that has tabs).

In Windows XP and 7 (and probably Vista), Mouse Settings is located at Control Panel > Mouse > Settings.
