Finger love

[vaneramos]

About a week ago I lost the scroll function on the TouchPad of this Toshiba Satellite notebook, which meant I had to point to the side of every window and use the scroll bar. My index finger was not happy. Then I remembered downloading an optional update for the TouchPad driver that must have messed it up, along with the usual Windows updates. I was not enough of a techie to know what to do.

A Google search led me to FixYa.com, which looked helpful, so I posted an inquiry. Soon I received an email suggesting I pay for their Premium Assitance Plan to have my problem addressed by their team of Elite Experts. So much for that.

I tried ignoring the problem.

This morning my index finger said, "I hate you."

So I went into Windows Update, where I found an update history and "Troubleshoot problems" link. From there it took just a few clicks to find the TouchPad driver, and the "Roll Back Driver" Button. Reboot, and now it works.

"How persistent and resourceful!" says my index finger. "I love you."
