    not sure what caused the problem but i restarted my notebook for the 3rd time and it seems to be working now. I'm going to keep my eye out to see if it happens again and what causes it.

    Make sure Windows Update didn't install another driver and render the scroll useless. I had this happen two weeks ago. I ended up having to update the driver again and all was well.
