touchpad stops working after login

Hi thanks for the reply.

I did check the driver was up to date in device manager as suggested. I read that article and one of the suggestions was to boot up in safe mode. This confirms the touchpad drivers are up to date and there is no problem with the hardware.

The touchpad also works ok when the laptop initially boots up to the login screen. It just stops working as soon as Windows opens up after login

What is stopping the touchpad from working after login???

 

dual boot xp and ubuntu

I had that problem a few months ago, but dual-booting is really easy. I am currently dual-booting Vista and Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron. Use this website here for a guide to dual-booting XP and Ubuntu: APC's November issue is on sale now! | TechRadar (I actually did not use this guide at all, but I did pretty much the same thing!)

If you are unable to get your boot working with this guide, reply to this message, and I will write out a step-by-step guide, but it will involve you already having a partition set out for XP (as in you are not already using your entire hard drive space for XP alone.) Even though I write the guide with experience from Vista, it will work with XP
