    How do I reset Touchpad to work properly


    The touch pad on my Toshiba computer is not working. I only have one good USB port and use that for the mouse, but want to save pics on jump drive, but touch pad not working so I can operate without the mouse. Please tell me how to reset or reactivate my touch pad. I do not know how it got deactivated, it just wasn't working one day??

    :)

    Hi,

    Sorry for the delay in reply.



    I suggest you to roll back the drivers and check if that helps.

    Try the following steps:


    • Right click on the start icon and choose device manager

    • In device manager, right on the touchpad under Mice and other pointing devices.

    • Click on Rollback under driver tab.


    Hope this helps.
