Touchpad Trouble with Acer Aspire One Netbook

[mje504]

Hey All,

I recently got a new acer netbook. All seems fine, except I havn't been able to get the touch pad to work (I'm having to use a wireless mouse atm). I know that the touch pad does work, as when the computer is loading up, I am able to use the touchpad to move the pionter about, but as soon as the computer has finished loading up, it stops responding. This has made me think it may be more a software issue rather than hardware issue, which might be resolved by adjusting settings. Its a brand new computer, so there is nothing i can think of that i may have done to cause this.

Anyway, hope you can help,

Mike

did you check if the drivers were installed properly?

I have exactly the same problem. I just got mine last night. Reinstalled drivers, toggle Fn+F7 doesn't work. Should I install Recovery?
