    This inexpensive Lap Top worked fine for the first month . I had the HDMI line running to a 32 inch LED TV for viewing and listening to You tube programs, but now the Computer mouse does not work properly with the HDMI connected to the TV. Disconnect the HDMI line and the unit works fine.

      Hello rico,

      Thanks for your review. We're sorry to hear that the touchpad on your Dell computer is not working the way you'd like it to. We'd recommend recalibrating your touchpad by following these steps:

      Some Notebooks and Tablets with Keyboards have added gesture features to the touchpad hardware and drivers. A few of these features are two or three finger scrolling, pinch zoom, circle zoom, rotate and swiping. These new features may be the reason for the erratic cursor movement since most are turned on by default. You can disable or modify the way the features work in the touchpad driver properties. Here are some tips to modify these settings:

      1. In the Search box, type main.cpl.
      2. Touch or click main.cpl in the list of programs.
      3. Touch or click the Dell Touchpad tab.
      4. Touch or click on the picture of the touchpad.
      5. Touch or click Gestures (depending on your computer there may not be a Gestures option).
      6. Change the options as preferred.
      7. Touch or click Save.
      8. Touch or click the X in the upper-right corner to close the Dell Touchpad Utility.
      9. Touch or click OK on the Mouse Properties window.
      10. If the touchpad still does not work after following the preceding steps, refer to Dell Knowledge Base article - http://dell.to/2iaiujA.

      You can read the full article here - http://dell.to/2tqmS02.

      If you'd like to check to make sure that your software and drivers are up to date you can check your product page here - https://dell.to/2pzl3Nu.
