Hello and thank you for using Fixya's services.

On October 22, 2009, all manufacturers released new updates for Windows 7. Please check the manufacturer's website and download the new drivers for the touch pad.

Also, make sure that all of Windows updates are in order, downloaded and installed. This can be done by going to the start and typing in windows update in the search. Open the update box and check for updates. Microsoft has released close to 32 updates with issues from software to hardware incompatibility.

Please let me know if this resolves the issue and if you have any questions.

Windows 7 beta incompatible??

I have used acronis and win 7 with no issue.

Be aware though that win7 beta has a lot of versions so one may work fine and another maybe not.

As a Technet member I have the latest version and proper key etc.

Pirate versions may be subject to virus and other unwanted side effects.
