    hi guys
    i hope im posting in the right section.if im not please advise me were to post it.
    a good friend asked me to have a look at her dell inspiron 3520 laptop because the Touchpad and the right + left Buttons Stopped Working.
    so i opened up the dell touchpad configuration utility to check everything was ok and set it to default.
    in-stalled and re-installed the touchpad driver.
    nothing works except the left tap on the touchpad...not the button.
    i was going to do a factory reset just to rule out hardware problems. but i need to talk to her first.
    any ideas??
