Dell Touchpad Scrolling issue

johnnycnandy

Hey I recently had to reinstall my Windows 7 OS and since it's been reinstalled, I can no longer scroll using the touchpad. (I have a Dell Inspiron 1545.) It's really annoying when you're so used to using it. Any ideas on how to enable scrolling?

Cheers

Can you use clicking the two buttons at the same time to open a window in a new tab.

I think you might need to go to the dell website and download the update for quickset and the touchpad updates.

As someone here recommended, get driver genius pro by any means necessary.

If you have just reinstalled everything it will be really handy and also go with microsoft security essentials instead of other anti-virus

As Raoul says - install the latest driver.

Here's the URL for the 1545 driver if you're running the 32-bit version of Windows 7:

http://support.euro.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?os=W732&catid=17&dateid=-1&impid=-1&osl=EN&typeid=-1&formatid=-1&servicetag=&SystemID=INSPIRON1545&hidos=W732&hidlang=en&TabIndex=&scanSupported=True&scanConsent=False

If you're running the 64-bit version of Windows 7, then select that from the drop down list.

It's no harm in downloading & installing all the latest drivers for your laptop.
