New BSOD in W7. Really ? ...no way. Say it isn't so !]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Windows-7-New-BSOD-Dell-Touchpad-driver-21731379 Tue, 13 Jan 2009 00:26:48 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/-Dell-ALPS-Touchpad-driver-21729021
It's Dell Driver package R165804.

I re-downloaded it and unzipped and ran it on W:\ and it gave me an error only saying Alps Touchpad: "Install Failed."

On my other (upgrade) install of W7, (same computer) the touchpad software does work. (And I didn't do anything ...it was just there after the upgrade to W7)

In Device Manager it shows up as "Dell Touchpad" under Mice and other pointing devices. The driver is for an Alps Touchpad, which is the same as I was downloading in the Clean W7 ...but which would not install. (That could be one mark in favor of the Upgrade install).

So I went to Dell to get the Touchpad app for this comptuer.

Upon installing it, it gave me a BSOD "Memory Management"

It may have attmepted to install this to C:\ even though I'm running this W7 clean install off of W:\.
