Replace the mouse with a known good working one.
If you are not using a mouse (bad news) the touch pad may be failing.
In that case, an easy test and fix is to disable it in "Control Panel" then install a mouse in the USB Port.

If the problem is corrected then it is your touch pad.

Here is a link to the manual from Dell. FREE!

See Page 42 on disabling the Touch Pad.

Go to EBay and insert "6000 Dell Inspiron touch pad". It's cheap but difficult to replace.

Simple solution with less cost is please use the external USB mouse.(Small size also avaible in market.) You are not mentioned the location where you are, Please locate the nearest Laptop service center for repair/replacement.
Try once with installing the Touch pad drivers.. .

The key is stuck you have to be very careful if you are going to attempt to repair this.Turn the computer off and remove the battery before you attempt to repair it.Try prying it up with a thin knife blade.If this pops up and is working make sure it works as good as the other side.If not you will have to replace the palmrest.
Good Luck

sometimes the bobbin winder gets left closed, and that will make the machine run slowly and with no up/down button.

pulled the touch pad, go after the middle third with a very small screw driver, cleaned the flex circut with contact cleaner

powered up fine seems to be working again

Hi!

I had the same problem after my fat cat sat on my keyboard. This is how I fixed it. At the top of the keyboard there is a F9 key. If you look closely at this key, it also has two pictures of the mouse pad. This key is a toggle that turns the mouse pad on and off. Down near the lower left corner of the keyboard is a key marked FN. Hold down the FN key and press the F9 key. That will turn the mouse pad back on.

Hello Roinette,

It is unfortunate to know about that. However as you told that the left click button of the touch pad for you acer laptop has broken or damged, the only way to get it resolved is to get the laptop serviced. As the laptop touch pad and keypad is integrated directly with the mother board it is not possible to fix just that paricular button. The pad must be replaced. Get in touch with the acer technical support , they will replace the pad for you.

Thank you. Best of Luck.

problem solved. i had the same problem but i fixed it somehow. one day i just took a iron thick pin and pressed the space between number 5 and left-down button(not in the gap). and then i pressed between left-down key. Instantly it started working fine. i dont know whether it was my luck or i just accidently found a solution.
