Alps trackpad Multi Touch

[supermati]

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!

Welcome to Seven Forums.
Have you tried installing the Vista 32 bit drivers for your Touchpad and Pointing Stick in compatibility mode Vista? http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/316-compatibility-mode.html

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).

Anyone else knows? Thanks.
