    How about UN-installing it? And was there a reason for updating this driver?

    cheers ...

    Are you getting this driver from laptopvideo2go? I already see that they have a newer version. Try that?

    cheers ...

    I would try, if you have not done so, to remove (cleanly) all touch pad drivers, remove the device, let Windows pick up the device and point it to the driver version folder that works before for you.

    cheers ...
