I have a Sony vgn-fw21m notebook, it came installed with vista and all of the sony software.
I have since reformatted my machine and installed windows 7 ultimate. This is the second time I have done this, but this time I am experiencing some driver problems.
My touchpad is broken, it has been broken for a long time. The right click button does not work on my machine, its not a software problem, its a physical problem that I have never addressed.
Previous to my current reinstallation of windows I had got round my dodgey right click problem by changing what the buttons on my touchpad do. For example:
Tap on the pad = left click
Left click = right click
Right click = broken button
I just tried finding the settings where I can make these changes to my touchpad but its no longer there. All I have is standard mouse settings, which wont help me.
I gather I am missing some kind of driver or sony software for the touchpad. I have been on the sony website for my laptop downloaded the original "touchpad drivers and have pasted them into my system32 drivers folder, then rebooted.
I know I probably did this wrong as nothing has changed.
I am really desperate for help in resolving this issue now. If i cant resolve it i will only be able to use my laptop properly using an external mouse, which is just not practical.
