my touchpad
 

is dying. its acting numb.
i need this shit to work and i wont be carrying an extra mouse around like i have a desk everywhere.
its a dell, inspiron something? dont ask me more i dont know anything about technology.
i just wanna stab dell, so bad.
half of the touchpad is completely dead, the other half works but is very frigid.
they should send someone over.
someone wearing a dell t-shirt i can stab.

they must be laughing up there, this is what their website says:

reboot.
if the touchpad still doesn't work try using an external mouse connected via usb.

are they taking the piss?

downloading plug-ins they said could help.

there is a joke in there somewhere.

ok well sounds like its pretty fatal i am afraid, there is not a lot you can do bar getting a replacement and an external mouse. somewhere in your area might be able to put a new one in unless its under warranty?

this is specially funny because they called me a few weeks ago saying your warranty has expired would you like to extend it for 500 us dollars?

is it because i laughed at him?
is this why this is happening?

and how can they say... oh yeah touchpads dont work.

its somehow programmed into most things, 12 month warranty 13 month lifespan. someones got that job.

im dying.

It's the SY virus.

I got a wireless mouse and keypad doesn't help much when you're mobile but at home?

well i have that but i like to go to places with it!

if i wanted that i would have a desktop.

since you don't even use an external mouse, i'm guessing you don't do anything extremely mouse-intensive.

you can use the keyboard until you can get that fixed, believe it or not it's actually a lot more productive sometimes.
i can help you out with it if you really need .

no, i use my external mouse, not when im around tho.
i use it on my lap
like a lap
top

You could do with a beer. :D

touchpads are cake to replace, they are discrete parts that plug to the motherboard. should be an easy repair as long as you can find the right part.

ive smashed and dissected plenty computers to know this.

i hope your touchpad gets better!

that's beyond my point.
but whatever, i was just trying to help.

suit yourself.

i'm petty indifferent on this thread

i know, i don't mean to be rude it's just that i just finished paying for this and my work actually requires that i take it to many places.
whenever i am home, i use it, it's just not acceptable for the money i paid thats why im pissed.

so i can take it somewhere and it'd be fixed easily? this is good news.

i get it, but press the alt key and f4 simultaneously and maybe you will understand what i'm saying.

im scared. what is it gonna do?

my touchpad brings all the boys to the yard.

you know what.

see, i'm just saying that you can do with your keyboard almost everything you can do with your mouse, you just have to learn how.

potentially, yes, if it's something wrong with the part itself, yes, you could do it yourself. provided you don't zap it with static. antistatic wristband = $2. or, call geek friend.

could be a number of other issues though. i'd first check that the touchpad driver wasn't corrupted by something else-- so reinstall it.

i know you don't understand this. but it makes sense.


ha ha ha ha

good one

hey, why not just act like a cripple and enable mouse keys? one gets used to those pretty quickly.

and it's already paid for with the OS

i've seen your pretty drawings.

i should have kept those geeky friends closer

damn right, it's better than yours, I could teach you, but I have to charge.

^^what is the thing?

fixing touchpad first
milkshaking later

i just realized i forgot that mouse keys work in the number pad-- which laptops lack.

yeah, geeky friends rule-- ha!

jico/verme here is an uber-geek in the making. so dont piss him off.

who?/i am not.

he's not a geek, he's a wise counselor.

a tad irascible, perhaps.

^^ answer my question or will point my cannons at ya.
