Touch pad problems
Hey all.
I have the strangest touch pad problem (Toshiba Satellite l670),
When I boot my computer and have to select my user account, my touch pad works fine, but the moment I select an account and the desktop loads, it stops working!
Now the funny part : When I uninstalled the driver, my system rebooted, Windows 7 recognized my touchpad as a PS2 mouse, and it worked again, even on the desktop, but with diminished functionality.
So I reinstalled the driver (tried both Toshiba's driver and the one from synaptic) and the problem reappears, The touch pad is working fine until the desktop loads.
naturally I tried both fn+f9 and the little enable/disable touch pad button on my laptop, but to no avail I am afraid.
Now I have noticed that in the device manager, the touch pad is not under human interface devices, and I am pretty sure that used to be the case, but scanning for hardware changes doesn't solve anything.
Does anyone have any idea?
