the touchpad tab is missing from the control panel can be restored on vostor 1700 running xp

To turn off the touchpad on my laptop Dell Vostro 1700 under XP, but the touchpad tab is missing when I opened the control panel mouse icon

http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/driverdetails?DriverID=XV8FK

This is your driver for the touchpad, it should be located in the dell folder, do a search on your pc for

R165804.exe

and check that you have the folder options to show hidden files and not to hide system files.

Normally, it showed as icon in the control panel?

    Miss me the windows system32 rundll32.exe. I can't access the Add/Remove in the control panel.

    I tried to start - run with my c/d operating system

    I checked for viruses

    I purchase software to remove etc and REG files.

    Now that the devil do?

    Thank you

    If this

    I tried to start - run with my c/d operating system

    means that you have tried to use sfc/scannow from start > run, your experience is not surprising.  This 'solution' is often suggested by people who don't really understand what this command does.  It does not help to restore a missing rundll32.exe file.

    For what is

    I checked for viruses

    What is the name and version of your anti-virus application?  When (approximately) their subscription expires? What other antimalware applications installed?  What other antimalware applications you used recently to scan your computer?

    If you have not yet used the "software to remove the REG files and etc." return for refund or throw it out.  "Registry cleaners", 'tuners', etc. are not useful.  If you used to "clean" the registry, use its "undo" feature (if it has one) to restore the registry.  Longtime MS MVP PA Bear:

    TIP: If you still think again your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, enlarged, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), read http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions. See also http://blogs.technet.com/markrussinovich/archive/2005/10/02/registry-junk-a-windows-fact-of-life.aspx

    What probably happened is that your antivirus application deleted or quarantined in your file rundll32.exe thinking he was infected.  He could have, but probably not.  In any case, read the post that begins, "That 'solution' is not on my list." in the following thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-performance/systemrundllexe-not-found/6e30aff2-a88e-4d86-a654-753d54f632d1 you can also read the rest of the posts in this thread.

    Note that c:\windows\system32\dllcache is a hidden folder, but you who type in the address bar of Windows Explorer (or copy and paste), the folder should open anyway.

    Assuming you manage to restore rundll32.exe, download, install, update and run full scans (not at the same time) with each of the following free tools.

  • Programs disappear from my office and the program from the list but still appear in the control panel

    I use Window XP Home Edition and lately, I've noticed that programs have disappeared off the coast of my office and in the list of programs without allow me to delete them.  Firstly, this came to light when I went to start my virus scan and impossible to locate the icon or in the list of all the programs, but it is in the status bar at the bottom right of the screen. I have since discovered that other software have disappeared and when I will remove and reinstall them using the Control Panel can't do.  And when I tried to back up my data when it came time to burn data on a cd, I got a message asking me to insert a disk. Yes, he asked for a floppy and I couldn't have it burn the disk that was selected at the beginning of the backup.  A couple of days, I got the "blue screen" a couple of times and the computer turns off automatically. Oh yes, one more thing restore to a previous period will not fix the situation. Can someone tell me what is happening?

    Hi LarryFuller,

    It seems that your computer has been infected by the virus or malware. Scan your computer with the Microsoft Safety Scanner to get rid of the same.

    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  • How to enable and disable the part of the "control panel".

    I want to know if part of the control panel can be turned on and off by an external action, to use the mouse or a Boolean variable. Someone has an idea that help color? Thank you

    Ricardo

    You can disable cookies by using the node property and ownership "Disabled". You can create a tab control and disable the entire tab control that will disable all inside of it.

    To do this programmatically, set up your code with a structure of the event and create an event when the user changes the value of a button or click the mouse.

    See the example I did:

  • touchpad doesn't work on my laptop. I can't find that everything about the touch pad in Control Panel. can you help me please?

    touchpad doesn't work on my laptop.   I can't find that everything about the touch pad in Control Panel.  can you help me please?

    Hello

    It's material is not a Windows problems.

    / Settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 as you start then look at the screen - make sure that is it
    is a toggle the TouchPad that it is enabled.

    Check with support of the manufacturer system, documentation online or forums that there is probably
    Shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

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

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

    If necessary and the TouchPad makes its appearance in Device Manager: (make sure that you have restarted at least
    only 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.

    The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and 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.

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

    This utility also allows to control the TouchPad:

    TouchFreeze

    I hope this helps.

  • Missing audio device of the control panel.

    Several days ago, I opened the control panel to troubleshoot an audio device. The Control Panel showed two audio devices:

    1: ATI PNP
    HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_1002 & DEV_AA01 & SUBSYS_00AA0100 & REV_1001\5 & B0AB116 & 0 & 0001
    Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\atihdmi.sys (7.11.0.7703, 114,00 KB (116 736 bytes), 02/09/2010 12:34 AM)
    2: REALTEK PNP
    HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_10EC & DEV_0888 & SUBSYS_103C2A92 & REV_1002\4 & 19 19054 & 0 & 0001 c
    Driver c:\windows\system32\drivers\rtkvhd64.sys (6.0.1.6196, 2.37 MB (2 484 072 bytes), 07/09/2010 12:27)

    Both devices are still listed under system information/system/components tools, but:

    At some point during the configuration of the device from Realtek, ATI device disappeared from the control panel. Since then, I have found no way to adjust its properties, much less put on the control panel.

    The only other change observed: formerly the computer sounds internal (startup, error, stop, etc.) remained internal. Now, I can hear them through the external speakers - acceptable but not optimal.

    Any help would be appreciated.
