Possibly (I will have to check on my Z1RSP,) you can go to Sony Notebook set up and disable the touchpad altogether.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 29 May 2004 05:58:37 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/touchpad-not-work-driver-or-hardware-problem/m-p/149337#M128015 stevep-4 2004-05-29T05:58:37Z Re: touchpad not work - driver or hardware problem https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/touchpad-not-work-driver-or-hardware-problem/m-p/149338#M128016 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Re using restore disk, I was trying to avid doing this until the last option. I have downloaded the latests drivers from Sony web, but problem still remains I cannot update drivers because system config does not see the alps touchpad. I cannot see anywhere in sony setup program where the touchpad can be disabled/enabled. <BR /><BR />It would seem that maybe the touchpad is no longer working, hence why it cannot be seen by Windows. <BR /><BR />Unless anyone can suggest anything else?<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 29 May 2004 14:08:40 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/touchpad-not-work-driver-or-hardware-problem/m-p/149338#M128016 mike7 2004-05-29T14:08:40Z Re: touchpad not work - driver or hardware problem https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/touchpad-not-work-driver-or-hardware-problem/m-p/149339#M128017 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I wasn't suggesting that you use the recovery disk, I meant the Windows system restore program. Start - all programs - accessories - system tools - system restore.<BR /><BR />This will minimise any possible data loss, and has the added bonus that it can be undone if it doesn't make any difference.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 29 May 2004 14:33:54 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/touchpad-not-work-driver-or-hardware-problem/m-p/149339#M128017 robpaxton 2004-05-29T14:33:54Z Re: touchpad not work - driver or hardware problem https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/touchpad-not-work-driver-or-hardware-problem/m-p/149341#M128018 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I do not have this option enabled<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 29 May 2004 17:00:45 GMT https://community.sony.fi/t5/pcs-accessories/touchpad-not-work-driver-or-hardware-problem/m-p/149341#M128018 mike7 2004-05-29T17:00:45Z
