Go to control panel -> Mouse -> "Device Settings" tab (has the synaptics logo to the left of it) -> Select your touchpad -> "Settings" -> expand "Scrolling" -> "One-finger Scrolling" -> uncheck "Enable Vertical Scrolling" and also uncheck "Enable horizontal scrolling"

If you don't have "Device settings" in the mouse setting window, then you need to install the drivers from http://www.synaptics.com/support/drivers

Need to enable Scroll function on the notebook.

Scrolling function is not working:

1. The scroll function may stop working if the scrolling feature is disabled in Mouse Properties. To enable the scroll function, follow the steps below.

1. Click Start , Control Panel . Select Classic View from the left side of the Control Panel window.

1. Double-click Mouse in Control Panel, and then select the Device Settings tab in the Mouse Properties window.

1. Click Settings , Virtual Scrolling . Select the boxes labeled Enable vertical scrolling and Enable horizontal scrolling .

1. Click OK to save and exit the Mouse Properties window.

1. After changing these settings, the scroll function on the touchpad will be enabled.

To enable the touchpad scroll features, you you have to install the touchpad driver. The basic touchpad features work without the driver installed but the scrolling requires it.

Synaptics touchpad. This is generally down by the clock (TSR program) or within All Programs. In there you can Enable side (horizontal) scroll on the touch pad as well as vertical scroll and scrolling speed.

There is a software that comes preloaded with dell called Synaptics Pointing Software .See to that it is installed.From the software enable the required scrolling mode.by moving your finger up and down slightly pressed along the right most areas of the touch pad allows vertical scrolling while moving the finger horizontally at the bottom side of the touch pad allows horizontal scrolling.Also see to that the synaptics software is enabled at startup

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!

Hi,

Assuming you're talking about the touchpad, this can be enabled and disabled in your control panel.

Open your start menu, then Control panel, if it's not in classic mode click the Classic View link in the top-left corner. Now open the mouse icon and select the Device settings tab(red logo), now click the settings select by single clicking the synaptics touch pad from the list. click the settings button below the list and select the "Virtual Scrolling" section.

You will see two check boxes, the First enables the marked off vertical scrolling feature, the second enables a horizontal scrolling feature that may not be marked on the mousepad but runs along the bottom of the pad and works the same way.

Click OK, on both windows and close the comtrol panel.

Hope this helps FixYa, if not reply back with any additional info you can,
