    Dear notebook gurus

    I recently bought a MSI WIND U100-451US

    everything worked fine until I plug a USB Wireless Mouse. after I unplug it. Touchpad is gone.

    I have tried FN + F3

    I have tried to reinstall touchpad drivers.

    I have tried to uninstall USB mouse drivers.

    the problem is ... touchpad isn't showing on the Device manager at all!

    anyone know how can I get my touchpad back?


    Thanks

    I have also had just bought an msi wind u100-451us.

    I am having a perhaps related issue with the touch pad.

    My cursor sometimes loses focus, and the screen freezes.
    I have noticed that if I go to the task manager, and select the application, and click switch to, that I can get the cursor to have focus again on the window that I switched to. But this is stupid.

    Any suggestions? Install updated touchpad driver if any?

    I can't help you, just wanted to reiterate that the touchpad sucks.

    The link is not working :(
    I have the same problem with my Wind U100.
    Sometimes it works ok, but other times is not working and I have to plug in external mouse.
    How could I fix this problem?
    I think it's a hardware problem.

    Thanks
    Adi
