Hello, if your computer has Windows 7, press the Function key (Fn) and F9 to turn the touchpad on. If you have Windows 8, press F5.

If it still won't work, check your Device Manager (devmgmt.msc in the Run bar) to see if the touchpad is listed. If it has a yellow triangle on the icon, click on it to see what the specific problem/error is.
