    I upgraded my Dell Studio 1558 laptop from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and now I want to know how I can change my touchpad sensitivity .

    Cant find a way out and it's getting really annoying.

    When you upgraded, did you make sure you installed the Dell Touchpad application? If not, go to the Dell drivers site, plug in your Service Tag and install it. From there you can adjust the trackpad sensitivity.

    TIL that learned that those drivers dont work with Windows 8!
    Have to use a third party app for it. Fingers crossed!
