Default [Fixed] Laptop Left Click Not Working

Hi,

i posted this here because a mouse will work just not the button. The touchpag left button doesnt work either but the pad itself does. The right click button works and an external mouse works. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Maddocks

So have you tried another mouse yet? Also, did you try re-installing the chipset drivers (or seperate touchpad diver) for your laptop?

Try removing the touchpad in device manager and letting Windows re-install the drivers for it upon re-boot.
