I dont understand where the scroll zone is on my hp mini. Is it actually on the touch pad, and if so where?

The driver software is Synaptics TouchPad Driver (International) which you can get from HP's support site.

I don't quite understand the question? Try the User Manual: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DocumentIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&contentType=SupportManual&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=5060880

Tap the orange light quickly two times to enable the touchpad. Touch the same spot twice to disable the touchpad. To see the instructions from HP type "mouse" into the Search Programs and Files. Click on "Change mouse settings" and click Device Settings. Click on "Settings" and click "Touch pad disable zone". I was delighted to have found this as I had been restarting the computer manually to enable the touchpad. Shame on HP. The instructions for this simple problem are difficult to locate for the average user. They can do better.

I'm not sure what you operating system is but I'd suggest you go to your Control Panel and look for Touch pad and look at the settings there, If there's no Touchpad listed have a look in the Mouse settings.

Traktor scracth pro video 9, the scroll zone. On thevirtual vinyl track 3 you have the scroll zone, use this in scratch mode to scroll through your music files, once a file is selected stop and this will load up to the relevant deck

on the new hp mini - you double tap the touchpad indicator (upper left) to toggle the touchpad on & off

unless someone with that specific model or similar can answer your post I would consider calling HP's support phone number. Im sure they can assist you or find out if its faulty and get you a replacement.

at the top black rim around the touch pad, there is an orange light showing, press and have it show blue. It will work now.

Cheers.

Please rate this fixya.

Use alps one as well as check weather your touch pad is lock or not

hold down the fn key and press the scroll button.
