[Solved] Scrolling doesn't work after Windows 8.1 Upgrade

[mh2]

Hi All,

 

I've just upgraded to Windows 8.1 and I am facing an issue: The scroll that I have on my laptop (that comes in the right side of the mousepad) is not working anymore. :(

My PC is:

Acer Aspire V3 - 771G

 

I've google a bit but didn't find any issue like this. Scrolling doesn't work after Windows 8.1 but it was working on Windows 8.

 

BTW: This update doesn't bring anything much scpecial in terms of aesthectics. Not a crucial update...i think :)

 

Thanks!

Hi MH2

 

Try going to Device Manager ( Search Box > type in device manager > click on Settings )

Click the > next to Mice and other Pointing Devices

Right click on the mouse pad > update driver software

Use the automatic option

[ you will need internet access ]

If there is a newer driver this should install it.

 

Failing that ...

 

right click the mouse pad in Device Manager > Uninstall

Reboot the machine

 

Windows should re-install the drivers

Hi. I would be going to Acer and looking for Touchpad Drivers for your machine.

Hi,

 

It worked. Thanks. Probably Windows 8.1 made a reset on some of the drivers and installed the default ones

 

Thank you Ken and DSTM
