I have already done a Reset installation of Win10, which didn't fix the issue, and tried several candidate device drivers since that reset.Īny assistance, or even confirmation that this quest is doomed, would be appreciated.įorget the official Windows 10 support for your laptop, there's clearly none seeing that the most up to date drivers are for Vista 32-bit. Behavior was never perfect, but it was more consistent earlier on than it is now.

Prior to going to Windows 10 it had been loaded with Vista from the factory and was part of the Windows Insider preview program, eventually having Win10 Pro 32-bit installed at the end of the insider previews. This is driving me mad, and if I can't solve it soon I think I'll be making this particular laptop into a Linux machine just because I'd like to have it function on some level. I'm also having issues with the inability to click on the minimize/maximize/close buttons in a given window once the window is open.

It's very common also for double click on desktop icons to stop functioning and a single click directly on the icon giving a context menu with "open" as an option. I have been trying, and trying, and trying to find a device driver that will make the Dell/Alps Electric touch pad on my Inspiron 1720 laptop actually function, correctly and consistently, with Win10 for weeks now and have tried many, but have had absolutely no luck.ĭevice manager shows the device "working normally" but I routinely have issues with no reaction from clicking the start button or anything on the quick-launch bar or system tray, or, conversely, these are the only things that respond while any additional clicks once they're displaying their respective menus/icon groupings/etc.
