    I updated to this driver from the Dell website and when I click on "AlienTouch" i get the following error:

    Any ideas??

    WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
    To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
    Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
    To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

    also make sure you have the touchpad drivers installed. I know that causes problems when trying to launch the alientouch stuff.
