    Hey,

    I discovered I had this problem yesterday where I couldnt activate the touch screen buttons (Which I suspect happened due to uninstalling Quickset not knowing what it was).
    I then tried to reinstall it, but I keep getting a message my system isnt supported, so I looked online to which was suggested to extract the exe files to program files and set it up to run at start up.
    That worked and I can now adjust volume with FN and volume up/down keyboard buttons, however, the dell customisation for windows mobility center isnt there and I cant set the quick launch button (Between the gear and waves maxx touch buttons), to do what I want it to do.

    I suspect I cant do this cause I havent exactly installed QuickSet.

    Will really appreciate any help anyone has, I want my quick launch button back...

    Thanks

    UPDATE: I got it working in the end.
    I downloaded and installed this: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers...?driverId=54X1W&osCode=W732&fileId=2944762635

    Was able to download/install it no problem and all my touch buttons came back to life and worked just how they used to!
    Hope it helps anyone else who came across this problem
