i received my new win 8.1 laptop monday.
when i started using it the mouse was all wrong, i went into mouse settings but it was only the basic settings, i couldnt find synaptics at all.
i phoned pcspecialist and was told too install from the drivers disk supplied which i did and are pretty much ok bar the touch click is just not sensitive enough, most of the time 8/10 it will be fine but other times it just wont click for 2 or 3 taps.
the driver i have installed is 16.5.1.1 and is named as synaptics PS/2 PORT TOUCHPAD.
is this the correct driver or am i missing something else.
whilst looking in device manager there is an error on “other devices” “PCI device and an error on “sound, video and game controllers” there is an error on itel (R) display audio, i dont know what these are but i assume there is not meant to be an error on them.
i have emailed pcspecialist but thought id ask here as well.
i am very pleased with the laptop but this mouse issue is really irritating, i have used the lowest middle and highest settings on sensitivity but it seems the same on all of them.
i also have a bit of an issue with the single finger scroll but im now using 2 finger and thats just fine and seems better too me.
any advice guys, please.
edit: in the mouse properties there is also an elan option although there is nothing in there to use, should i be using elan and not synaptics?.
