Dell Latitude 3189 touchpad drivers search, W7 Home Premium

[HoboDookie]

A few months ago, I bought a Dell Latitude 3189 off eBay for like $50 bucks as a secondary laptop. It came with Windows 10, but I "downgraded" it to Windows 7 to see how the experience would be. It took some searching to find the essential drivers, but I got wireless, aero, sound, etc. working well. However, I cannot find a working touchpad driver. The Dell downloads page says that the laptop only supports Windows 10. Yeah, right. I looked up "touchpad" and it recommends Windows Update. That is solid advice for Windows 10, but not for Windows 7. I used Driver Booster and other driver lookup tools to no avail. Right now the touchpad *works*, but scrolling with two fingers as well as pinch gestures don't work. Scrolling is currently a nightmare. Please help me find a working driver, or at least find a workaround for scrolling. I know a mouse would work fine, but I am focused on the laptop being decently usable even with the touchpad.

Hi

touchpad drivers dont tend to be OEM specific,

have a look at this link, should be what you need

I got an error saying "no need to install Synaptics pointing device drivers." Perhaps it wasn't the right one for the touchpad model in this laptop?

What is the exact 7-character "Service Tag" number on that Dell Latitude 3189 11.6" laptop?

The support site for that model laptop has only Windows 10 64-bit drivers.
And for Windows 10 64-bit, it has no dedicated touchpad driver.
