    This is the procedure for the most common driver problem that we come across on our Toughbooks
    This explains “how to get your touch screen working”
    joecox2 wrote this up:
    Ok, for someone that knows how to do this...reading this will be painful, but for someone that has no idea what they need to do, this a a step by step set of instructions. It should be near impossible to screw this up.
    1. Click on "Control Panel"
    2. Click on "System"
    3. Click on "Hardware"
    4. Click on "Device Manager"
    5. Click on "Mice and Other Pointing Devices"
    6. Click on "generic mouse"
    7. Click on "Driver"
    8. Click on "Update Driver"
    9. When it asks if you want to automatically check for updated drivers, select "no not at this time"
    10. Click on "install from a list or a specific location"
    11. Click "don't search I will chose the driver to install"
    12. Click "have disk"
    13. Click "browse"
    14. Click "Local Disk C Drive"
    15. Click "util"
    16. Click "drivers"
    17. Click "mouse"
    18. Click "Fidmous"
    19. Click "open"
    20. Comes up with "C:\util\drivers\mouse"
    21. Click on ok and select "touch pad"
    22. Click "next" and you're good to go
    All of this would mean you actually downloaded the proper drivers from Panasonic...if you haven't, this will not work.
    This mini tutorial will work for all drivers, just change the driver name and location to suit.

    thnx man, had the same issues with mine today.

    Anyone has the schematics for cf-18fhazxbm, NOT the service manual, i already found that around the web?? I bought this from a fren and want to take it apart, for some modifications.
