Specific instructions, read the instructions for your system or contact the support of laptop manufacturers.

    I had my hard drive replaced on my Toshiba lap top and my windows 7 is no longer considered as authentic code has rubbed off the sticker on the base of my lap top. Where can I find it?

    Option 1:

    If the COA sticker is damaged, you must use the recovery partition to reinstall Windows 7, it will be exempt from the need to use the product key to activate your installation of Windows 7.

    Option 2:

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling. This will exempt the need to also use the product key.

    Option 3:

    If neither options 1 or 2 is possible, then you will need to invest in a new license of full version of detail.

  • How can I activate the scroll function on my laptop mouse pad?

    Hello

    My laptop mouse pad is no longer scroll in FireFox or MS Word (or any other program I've tried) since switching from Vista to Windows 7. In the Windows Help section, it suggests that there should be a tab "Scrolling" in the mouse properties window, however, when I opened the window just 4 tabs are "Buttons," "Pointers," "Pointer Options" and "hardware". How can I switch on / activate the scrolling feature?

    Thank you

  • Mouse pad does not work

    A few months ago my mousepad stopped working for no. (obviously there must be one) reason. I noticed it after that I started to share music with other computers on our network. At first, I thought that the red light was something to do with it, then I discovered that the little symbol underneath was a mouse pad.

    My laptop no button on it that turn the pad on and apart, and properties of the Synaptics said that it works well and is connected to the right channel.

    Hello

    Check with support of their documentaton online and drivers, system manufacturer and ask in their forum
    (if there is one) that several will have keyboard shortcuts that will turn the Touchpad on or off.

    Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with TouchPad entered)
    and some come with a utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock in the bottom right.

    ==========================================

    If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work)

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touchpad - the driver tab-
    Click on update driver (it comes may not do anything like MS is far behind the drivers of certification), now right CLICK
    on the TouchPad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in). RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad from working.

    Here is the similar procedure under XP, Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    I hope this helps.

  • How to turn on the Double Tap feature on the mouse pad!

    Good so I used to be able to double tap on the mouse pad, click and I accidentally turned off somehow and I can't for the life of me understand how to re-enable it. Help please!

    In most cases, the controls for it are in the start menu / Control Panel / mouse.  Where varies by manufacturer (computer and mouse) so I can't help you there that you have not provided this information, and even if you don't I probably just refer to manufacturers of assistance.  But before you go watch, read the next paragraph.

    But it turns out that there is another way to set this feature.  Here is the procedure:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/40246-single-click-option.html.  It is quite simple and does not involve all the controls of the mouse (and can be changed back as you wish).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
