a few months ago I called dell to have something on my computer fixed (I don't remember what it actually was). The dell rep remotely took over the computer and cleared out a bunch of the programs from startup in various locations. Since then I have not been able to use the scroll and multi-touch features on my mousepad. I can't find where to turn this back on and re-installing the driver has not helped.
whenever i go into the control panel to look at the mouse settings it says: Unable to connect to the synaptics pointing device driver.i have tried reinstalling the driver but nothing happened also the windows on my laptop keep going over the taskbar that is unrelated but that's also irritating and i don't know how to fix it and its making the task bar pointless because i have to minimise everything to find it.
My dad is working on a Dell Studio 1735 laptop and can't get the scroll bar to work. He's tried going into mouse settings but a scroll bar option wasn't there. He also tried to update drivers and check the touch pad settings to no avail. Anyone know the solution? In dell support there is no win 7 64-bit option.
i have new laptop hp pavillion dv6t-6b00 notebook. i installed windows 7 ultimate on it. the touch pad has no scrol bar line on it. one of my friend told me that you can enable it from mouse properties. so i tried every thing there is no virtual scrolling button or if i go to personalize> mouse pointer> there is no gestures button .
I have researched this problem quite a bit and tried several possible solutions that have worked for many users yet nothing had worked. I have tried several different drivers, tried tweaking settings with no solution in sight.
I have a Vaio laptop with Windows 7. the scroll feature on the touchpad is ever so annoying. How do I remove this option? I have gone to the Start button, then mouse features but have not found a way to disable the scrolling.
when I open PDF file in Fx (open in new tab), I can scroll only that PDF file, however if I change focus to other tabs it doesn't work (external mouse is not affected, only touchpad).Closing PDF tab restores scrolling ability.
Dell Studio 1535 I've successfully installed Windows 7 on a clients laptop, the thing is the touchpad won't scroll anymore after having installed Windows 7.I have all the drivers and everything, even the driver for the touchpad.I just can't figure out to set/configure the touchpad to scroll again.
Note: The touchpad itself does work, but it just won't scroll.
I have installed the Elan touchpad driver I can't get it to scroll correctly. In addition an Elan touchpad .exe run box comes up at every boot which does nothing when Run. I finally browsed to it in the Programs folder and deleted that .exe file so it wouldn't pop up at every start. It shows installed in the Device Manager, however doesn't have the functions I had in the Samsung factory install. This and the sound driver don't seem to work right when installed, as though there is more software needed that isn't on the Downloads page at Support for NP-RF511.
I have a gateway m-6843 laptop that originally came with vista. It has a track pad, or whatever that thing on laptops is called. I installed windows 7. In both FF and IE when the cursor is NOT in the scroll area, it acts as though I am holding on to the scroll bar. So if I move my cursor down near the bottom of the main part of the browser page (again, outside of the scroll area) it acts as if I grabbed the scroll bar and flung it down. It is intermittent, but bad enough that doing anything online is almost impossible.
i recently got an update from microsoft on win 7, and immediately after it had finished updating i had no sound in any application (aim, skype, chrome, firefox, Internet, etc.). this has happened before, and i ran microsoft's sound problems wizard and it always said that an option had been clicked off and that it had restored it.this time when i ran the wizard it says it detects no problems. i am sure it is the software, as it happens a lot with ms updates. will downloadi can't go back to a previous configuration, i don't have one to go to
I am still kid at heart. I like eye candy. I have W7 home prem. I wish it had that Pan and Zoom Screensaver that Vista had. Is there a way to copy the Pan n Zoom from Vista and insert it into 7?
I have windows 7 ultimate 32 bitI use Samsun 16" Wide; When i run a program, it's like a flash,it appears that some parts of it are not shown, and it shows an errorHere's the error:" ERROR Control Panel/Display/Appearance/Display SchemeThis computer is set to display abnormally large window borders and window controls.Please reset this to a "Windows Standard" scheme. "I think everything is because of this wide thing, but what can i do?
I use a Hitachi plasma screen with a native resolution of 1024x1024 to watch TV via Media Centre and with the recommended output resolution at 1024x768 via VGA. As would be expected, this results in black bars top and bottom so I have to use Zoom 3 setting which corrects it nicely. The picture quality is excellent.
The problem is that when I change channels a few times, it reverts back to the default Zoom 1 so I have to manually change it back again using the info/zoom menu. This applies to HD & SD digital channels.
Is there some way I can get the zoom setting to stick? It's a real nuisance otherwise and ruining the setup.
I reported this problem on the beta and hoped that it would be fixed by now in the RC.
I have a widescreen Hitachi plasma with a native resolution of 1024x1024. My HTPC is connected via VGA using 1368x1024 resolution through an ATI Radeon 4670 card which gives really excellent picture quality for live TV (with a few tweaks!). MC displays correctly full screen but I need to set it to Zoom 3 for live TV to remove the black bars top and bottom and fill the screen correctly for 16:9 aspect ratio.
The problem is that this setting will not stick and randomly changes back to Zoom 1 when I change channels. Sometimes it works and sometimes not regardless of content. Sometimes I can just see the picture change zoom an instant before the channel changes.
This is definitely a windows problem and not related to the graphics driver. I have used the driver automatically installed by Windows 7 and updated to Catalyst 9.4 with exactly the same results. WMP remembers the zoom correctly for DVD playback.
I have an identical setup running under Vista MC and the zoom, once set, always remains the same (Zoom 3).
Is there a way of making this setting stick as it should remain the default for all my TV viewing and I could not live with having to change zoom every other time I change channels? Any help would be much appreciated as without a solution I would not be able to adopt Windows 7 which would be a great shame considering all its other improvements over Vista.
I know about the option to automatically reset it whenever a new tab opens (found in the advanced tab in IE options), and I know that this is based off of what option is set in the "Ease of Access" control panel. The thing is, is that this is on a laptop, so I like all my icons and text outside of IE to be at 125%, but flash is messed up in IE if it isn't set to 100%. Also, every once in a while I discover that I have accidentally changed my zoom factor by hitting control+scroll (just a guess this is how it changes), and would like to avoid this.
I was testing out whether using the optical zoom on my camera is better than manually zooming a picture in Photoshop. As a complete newbie, what are the basics on how to zoom and crop and not lose my 4288x2416 resolution?
I just purchased a new canon 60 d and I loaded the new software that came the camera, and the zoombrowser keeps saying not responding ,or is very slow to respond, my computer software is windows 7 ultimate
Recently purchased an Acer 5733. Why will my new higher zoom setting not remain as such, until I wish to reset. It seems erratic from one web page to another, and often automatically returns to 100%. Sometimes when I return to previous viewed web pages, the higher setting will have remained. If I set at 125% I want it to stay there!!
i am on a webpage, any webpage, and as i'm looking at the page it can slowly or quickly get smaller and smaller. my zoom will go from my normal 125% setting down to 12%. i reset the zoom and it happens again. this has been an interrmittent problem for the past few weeks. i use IE9. tonight i downloaded firefox to see if the problem would appear there also. it did. so i do think it's a windows is there some way to lock the zoom? what is causing this? my computer is set to download windows updates automatically (not the optional ones).i don't know if it's related, but at times the icons on my desktop get small. when i check i see that it is set to small icons. i change it back to medium icons, and it goes back to small icons. this also is intermittent, and sometimes seems to coincide with the webpage zoom issue, but not always.i sometimes lose my hot key settings for my wireless keyboard. for example, i hite the hot key for mail and nothing happens. this also is an intermittent issue that sometimes coincides with the other issues and sometimes does not.
I wish to totally remove the CTRL & Mouse Wheel/Scroll facility from all applications. I am aware you can do this in some programs individually, but sadly not all have this facility.My Logitech MX Performance mouse is amazing, especially the free-wheel!! Sadly the majority of programs I use do not appreciate this feature, especially when using CTRL & C to, oh wait, your not copying, your magnifying to 300%...
I changed computers and so I had to download new drivers for my printer as well as my Powershot Pro1 which included ZoomBrowser. For RAW shots, in order to manipulate the photo, it has to be converted. No problem before. Now, there is no link to do the conversion under Edit, which is where it was and where I found info on line where it should be.
I have an old wired (I think it's a logitech) mouse, and it has stopped scrolling only in IE. It will scroll in Firefox though. And I don't know if it works in Chrome or not because Chrome has totally died on me and is just a mess.
how to get my mouse to scroll?
I looked for drivers thinking I maybe needed to update them, but it says drivers are not required. I have disconnected and reconnected the mouse from my PC, which is running Windows 7, and still no luck.
All of a sudden the Up & Down Arrow Keys, the Page Up & Page Down Keys, the Home & End Keys no longer work properly. Whenever I click on any of them nothing happens or I am taken to the very bottom of the page. The only way I can move up & down the page is to use the Scroll Bar.
