    Hey folks,

    ive already read about the problems existing with windows 8.1, sadly right after I upgraded my systerm.
    it is "ok" to wait for the upcomming drivers, but I really need the exrpess cache and I the touchpad driver. Is there any way I can get working drivers? Tried the Windows 8 driver for the touchpad, but it did not work out that well. I really want the scrolling to be inverted, is there any registry hack to do this? the standard mode is so annoying.
    thx for your responses.

    regards

    Hello Wedmadd, welcome to NBR.

    ExpressCache does actually work with 8.1. Check this post.

    I was able to get the Touchpad working OK on my NP700Z3A using driver version 11.7.10.4 but different users with diferent models have different experiences. In any case, use ETDAniConf to change those settings that are not available in the regular control panel. See this post.

    It is probably better to continue posting about this in the Win 8.1 sticky thread so that we have information about it gathered, instead of scattered in little threads from every individual user who upgraded to 8.1.
