Hello,

some time ago, I formatted my laptop. Before, it was possible to scroll with my mousepad, when I touched the right side of the pad (from top till bottom). Now, this feature is gone. Anyone an idea how to get it back?

Greetings

Hi borry and welcome to ClubVAIO.

When you formatted your laptop, did you reinstall all the Sony Preinstalled Utilities and Drivers?

What model Vaio do you have?

Hey,

I downloaded everything (drivers and utilities) from the vaio-link site but still nothing. I will check if everything is also really installed.

I have an FS 515.

Check in Device Manager that you have an entry for "Alps Pointing Device for Vaio" and check there are no errors. You could try Uninstalling it and rebooting to reload the drivers.

If this doesn't work, download the latest version 5.5.501 of Alps Pointing Device for Vaio from HERE

Hey,

I can't download the Alps Pointing Device for Vaio from the link 😞

And I can't find it on the Alps site itself...
