    please help me....
    i stupidly locked my touchpad for my travelmate3250. and da mouse is not working due to my newly changed windows vista which i confuse a lot. my head is going to break soon! the functional keys for unlock/lock da touch pad are not working. i went through control panel by the short keys and hit the mouse setting section but the thing is that i cannot move to the options on the head of the box beside the first option. are you confusing with my language??? i'm not good in english and there is not much people around here using laptop. if i only know that how to select the next option in the mouse of control panel, that will help a lot. can anyone tell me, please???

    In Windows, you can usually use move among the tabs at the top of a dialog box by pressing Ctrl + Tab at the same time.

    Hope this helps.

    The failsafe method is holding down the power button till the pc shuts off. This will reset any software mods you have done.
