So the other day I installed a microsoft bluetooth mouse and the drivers that it came with. Heres the mouse that I got.

http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkeyboard/productdetails.aspx?pid=085

However, after installing the mouse, I found that when I'm working without my mouse, I can't scroll using my touchpad anymore. In the past, I used to be able to easily scroll up and down using the right side of my touch pad. I've tried playing around with the mouse functions in the control panel but nothing seems to bring the scrolling on my touchpad back. any ideas?

Thanks

Forgot to add that I have a SZ680 and i downgraded it to windows xp

Were you able to use touchpad scrolling after installing the mouse software, or it stopped after installing the software. You can try to uninstall it and reinstall.

I don't think i was able to use the touchpad after I installed the microsoft software. I can't say for sure because I really didnt notice the scrolling issue until today. Will it make a difference if i uninstall because eventually ill have to reinstall the software again if i want to use the mouse.
