    Hi,

    I have a Dell Studio laptop and I uninstalled the touchpad by accident. Now i cant find the proper software anywhere. Can anyone please help me with that?
    Now i can use my touchpad for moving the cursor but scrolling and multitouch are not working.

    Hi there,

    Thanks for the link and advice to install the touchpad last time. It was working finr till yesterday, but when i used an external mouse for AUTOCAD application, the touchpad is not working properly. The features like, scrolling, multitouch zooming are not workning. I tried to reinstall the driver but when i do the same, its giving a message - "There are no files to download. Please go to Dirver and Downloads to select files". and when i click ok button, the window will close.
    How to fix this and reinstall the touchpad again?
