Windows 7: Touchpad Driver for Dell Inspiron 1525

On my Dell Inspiron 1525, when you try to scroll using the touchpad (sliding your finger along the right or bottom side), all it does is move the mouse. I think this might be a driver problem, so I tried going on the Dell website to find a driver for the touchpad, but all I can find are drivers for Windows XP and Vista 32-bit. Does anyone know of any Dell Inspiron 1525 drivers for Windows 7 64-bit?

First Run windows Update and look though both recommended and Optional updates.
Can you see driver updates?

Nope.

dude.... i have the drivers with me.... and they are working fine send me your mail id so that i ll send you the drivers for inspiron 1525 touchpad drivers.

in return i need a favour from you.... what is the audio driver you are using on your inspiron 1525 in Windows 7? please tell me an update from where i can download.

Use the Vista drivers from:

Just to add to this you'll want to probably use compatibility mode to install them. Right click on the setup.exe file>properties>compatibility tab>drop down menu select Vista>check the box run in compatibility mode. Then install as administrator. Fabe
