Touchpad issues on Packard Bell

HI EVERYONE!
I HAD THIS PROBLEM AND I STRUGGLED FOR A WHILE, I SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND NOTHING.
ACTUALLY, YOU HAVE THE F7 KEY WITH A LITTLE HAND ON IT.
YOU NEED TO PRESS FN, WHICH IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE KEYBOARD, AND PRESS F7 AT THE SAME TIME.
HOLD IT FOR A MOMENT AND THAT'S IT!!
I HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU!!

Download the driver from synaptics.com and install it. You will then have access to plenty of options, including the ability to disable the touchpad from the control panel -> mouse.

Ugh yeah, don't buy Packard Bell, it's total ****

I have a problem with it too, but it's kind of the opposite of yours; I want to disable it... but surprise, surprise, the touchpad doesn't show up in the hardware, the help section, or anywhere else... it's just great, Packard Bell, I have a touchpad that's bothering me that I want to disable so badly, but my PC tells me it doesn't exist. Given how much it's annoying me (because I keep clicking on it accidentally), I can assure you otherwise... this is the first and last time I buy a Packard Bell; not only do I have a bunch of problems with it, but the tech support is just as poor as the product :/

And on top of that, they still haven't figured out that AMD goes with ATI and Pentium with GeForce, not the other way around... pffff, I swear...

By the way, if anyone has a solution, that would be great ^^

Touchpad inactive or locked on Packard Bell dot s.fr: think of the key combination Fn + F7 which allows you to activate and deactivate the touchpad.

Hello, for the Packard Bell Easynote LJ75
you need to press the symbol at the top of the numeric keypad.

Thank you very much for your advice regarding the Packard Bell Easy Note; all I had to do was press the button with a square and a hand on it, problem solved, thanks.

Hello,

So my problem is similar, only no matter how many times I do the same maneuver fn+f6 (which is the right combination to activate/deactivate the touchpad), the mouse icon doesn't move.

Hi, hi

I'm posting my problem here hoping that this is the right place!

I have a problem with the touchpad of my Packard Bell, I can't find the "scrolling" function for web pages. The version of the TouchPad is: Synaptics TouchPad V6.3, The Packard Bell is the EasyNote MB87. However, when I plug in a mouse, the scroll wheel works perfectly fine.
I've configured in the Synaptics settings a touch area (at the bottom right of my Touchpad) to "scroll the current window down," but it only works for Windows and not for Mozilla (and it's not very convenient...).
I should mention that my Touchpad is circular, I have no more ideas, I've tried almost all the settings of the Synaptics device and I'm starting to think that scrolling doesn't exist on this model of PB...!?!
If anyone has an idea...
Thank you!

PB EasyNote MB87
Vista premium edition
Synaptics TouchPad V6.3

I had the same problem and I was thinking of bringing it in for repair
Luckily, I did some research and I came across this topic
You just need to press Fn + F7 to reactivate the touchpad!!!

You simply need to press the light button with your hand in the square where there is a plus in the middle.

Thank you! RENS

I found the solution; you just need to press the key located at the top, F6.

I have the same problem, I'm waiting for a response.

Thank you Rens, you are our savior!! Still, you should have known that these glowing buttons were touch-sensitive...

On your laptop, you notice just above the keyboard a certain number of icons, including a square with a finger on it... it's a touch key; press it with your finger, it will turn off, and your touchpad will be activated again...

I have the same problem with my Easynote LJ75. FN + something doesn't work and it doesn't change anything in the control panel either?

Good evening, I have the same touchpad issue with a Packard Bell Easynote MH36.
However, there is no shortcut key on the keyboard with a little hand that allows me to reactivate the pad using a FN+key combination.

There is also no touch button to reactivate it.

And I have already reinstalled the drivers and nothing works.

Does anyone have a solution?

Can you see the bar at the bottom with Internet Explorer and so on on the desktop? Normally, you should also have a blue thing with a little gear. Click on it and a window will open, from which you can enable and disable a lot of things, including airplane mode and the "touchpad." That's how I did it, I hope it works for you.

c not fn and f6 but fn and f7
