Touchpad Scroll Not Working  

mark200 said:

So I installed W7 about two weeks ago (as a clean install instead of an update) and since then my touchpad scroll is no longer working...

I've Googled this problem a lot and I haven't come across a solution that has worked for me yet. I think I have the most up-to-date Synaptics driver ('Synaptics Pointing Device Driver' version 14.0.3).

So I don't know what to do..

I'm on a Toshiba Tecra A8.

Any help is really appreciated!

hi mark200, welcome to the forums , have you tried the alps driver instead of the synaptics driver ? have a read of these 2 threads Synaptics Touchpad scroll feature not working scroll of touchpad doesnt work win7

Ah yeah that worked! Thanks! I had seen your second link before, but assumed that wouldn't work since my laptop isn't Sony. But yeah the Alps Driver installation did the trick... despite Windows constantly telling me that I had the best driver installed already.

Took me a while to find a place to download the driver from though, so I'll just stick the link in here for anyone who's having the same problem that I had:

Alps Touchpad Driver 7.0.301.4 Driver for Windows Vista Free Download - Softpedia

glad we were able to help you, thank you for posting the link and also for letting us know it worked for you
