  1. HELP trackpad has a mind of its own - plus flashing circles.


    I have a Dell Inspiron and I am running Windows 10. About a month ago I started having problems. It was freezing on the internet.I was getting insufficient memory alerts. My trackpad cursor was acting erratic, like it has a mind of its own, opening and closing things and pulling to the right. I get a vertical line of flashing circles on the far right. Couple times I also had a couple of horizontal lines near the top of the screen. Sometimes it does not allow me to go to certain points in word document i.e. to correct something – can’t move my cursor to that

    :)

  2. laptop trackpad not working after windows 10 upgrade

    the Toshiba website has no windows 10 listing of drivers for my model p50w-b00f (yet).

    The trackpad on/off button does nothing.

    note: the trackpad does work while booting. the little circle on black screen.

    Left/right click problem (mouse and trackpad)

    Hi everyone, I'm really struggling with using my Cube Mix Plus tablet in laptop mode. With the keyboard connected, doesn't matter if I use the trackpad or mouse, when I click on certain things they just flash up momentarily then disappear. Including the mouse settings window, annoyingly. And the start menu. It works OK for maybe a minute after login then starts acting up.

    So far I've disabled the windows key, and installed an autokey script that is supposed to disable trackpad gestures. Still the same issue though.

    Here's a video of it happening (those are all left clicks, I know I click quite rapidly at points but it's each single click doing the flash-up-and-disappear thing, happens when I go much slower too)

    Any suggestions or help much appreciated, thanks!
