    I have a new Dell e6410 that I'm pretty happy with... but I cannot figure out how to get draglock working on the touchpad. Or maybe I'm just doing it wrong!

    Any suggestions or help welcome...

    TIA,

    What do you mean by drag lock? If it's what I think you're trying to do, try this: put the cursor over the item you want to drag. Now, tap it twice, making sure to not lift your finger from the second tap, then start dragging. You should be able to drag the icon (or make multiple-item selection).

    It's called "click lock". It's a toggle switch on the mouse that if you hold the button down for 3 seconds, it will drag whatever you've highlighted until you click again.

    DELL LATITUDE E6410

    To turn it on go to: Control Panel \ HARDWARE & SOUND \ MOUSE \ MOUSE PROPERTIES \ BUTTON \ CLICK LOCK.......HOPE THIS HELPS ALL THAT ARE STILL LOOKING FOR IT. :D
