    I have a Acer Aspire 1694 WLMI2 (Pentium-m 2.0, 1 GB DDR2, 100 GB HDD, Ati x700 128 MB, etc).

    I installed F.E.A.R. and run it. When i exited it my touchpad was not working. It worked perfectly a moment before.

    I guess it's a driver conflict or something, because I don't think it can break like that. I also read of an user that has the same problem and fixed it formatting, but i can't do that now.

    Can anyone help me?

    I fixed it. I totally forgot that Fn+F7 disabled the touchpad.
