Lenovo G570 laptop touchpad scroll won't work after installing Windows 8 Pro

if you click on the up arrow by the clock there should be a little gray box possibly with a red "x" in it click on that the go over to device settings there will be synaptics TouchPad V7.2 that will say No to the left of it enable that and it will be fixed

It really is annoying. I've tried everything also, but I haven't had any success. I'm thinking about just giving up on it until they (hopefully) work it out! I'm probably going to end up using a wireless mouse until they update this issue. The pad itself isn't all that great anyways.

No I have not and it is still very annoying.  I attempted to do what was suggested by Vinod N and I ended up with a frozen computer.  I was forced to fix it using Windows 8 recovery and I then had to reinstall all the programs the recovery uninstalled.  I am hoping Lenovo or Microsoft will come up with a solution.  I will keep checking Lenovo's website.

I just installed Windows 8 Pro on my Lenovo G570 laptop and the scroll feature on my touchpad no longer functions.  I had an evaluation copy of Windows 8 installed prior to Windows 8 Pro and the scroll worked fine.  The rest of the touchpad features work.  I have tried Lenovo support and even downloaded their latest driver but nothing has worked.  Can anyone out there help?  Thank you.

Did you ever fix this problem? I am currently having the same problem.

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Communities. From your problem description I understand that you are unable to access touchpad on the computer. Please correct me if I have misunderstood.

I understand how frustrating it could be when things do not work as expected. Please do not worry I will try my best to resolve it.

I would also suggest you to uninstall and reinstall touchpad driver on your computer in Windows 8 by choosing the compatibility level as Windows 7:

a.     Run the Program Compatibility Wizard, by pressing Windows key + W and then type Control Panel,

**b.**Click Programs, and then clicking Use an older program with this version of Windows.

**c.**Follow the instructions in the wizard.

In Windows 8, drivers may available on the website however, may try to download Windows 7 drivers from the website and then install them.
