-Microsoft XP 32 & 64-Bit, Vista 32 & 64-Bit, and Win7 32 & 64-Bit Operating Systems do not include the Dell Touchpad drivers

-Dell recommends installing the appropriate Dell Touchpad driver for the following user experience benefits:

1.The driver is tuned to the system characteristics to offer enhanced cursor acceleration and precision

2.The driver provides the core palm rejection features

3.Access to additional features and control setting (varies with system) including:

∙Enhanced scrolling and tapping

∙Touch sensitivity control

∙Multi-Touch Gestures (2nd Generation)

∙Jog Shuttle control (M6400 & M6500)
