    Alps trackpad Multi Touch


    Hello, I have a Windows 7 Pro 32 bit Dell XPS M1530.

    I recently discovered that Synaptics trackpads support multi touch with a simple driver update; however, my Dell XPS Laptop came equipped with an Alps trackpad.

    I've been looking for software and/or drivers that allow an Alps trackpad to recognize multi touch gestures (such as two finger scrolling).

    Any input? Thanks!

    Thanks for the answer.

    Yes, those are the drivers I am currently using for my Alps trackpad, but they don't allow any kind of multi touch gestures such as Two Finger Scrolling or Zoom by Pinching. I am aware that computers with Synaptics trackpads can "unlock" multi touch gestures with an uptade (source).
