    Hi,
    i've owned aspire 5820T for about 3 months now and i am experiencing a very difficult issue.
    For some unknown reason, some of the mouse functions on the touch pad have ceased working.
    It was working fine before until very recently. I think the problem appeared about two days ago.
    It appears as though my right click isn't working using the touchpad.
    Therefore, when I'm on internet browser, I can't even open a page on a new tab.
    Also, if I wanted to see the properties of the folder or anything, I have to use the button located between right alt and ctrl. It is very annoying.
    i have tried uninstalling and installing the drivers for the mouse device but all the attempts ended up in vain.

    I wonder if any other 5820 users are experiencing this issue, and I would like to get a legitimate solution that will get rid of this problem from already crammed mind from FINALS!!

    I thank those who will help in advance.

    PLEASE HELP ME!!

    You can use a small mouse for now, but if you have tried re-installing the drivers as I assume you have then you will have to report it to acer.
