The below procedure was taken from the sticky at the top of the forum...

Ok, for someone that knows how to do this...reading this will be painful, but for someone that has no idea what they need to do, this a a step by step set of instructions. It should be near impossible to screw this up.
1. Click on "Control Panel"
2. Click on "System"
3. Click on "Hardware"
4. Click on "Device Manager"
5. Click on "Mice and Other Pointing Devices"
6. Click on "generic mouse"
7. Click on "Driver"
8. Click on "Update Driver"
9. When it asks if you want to automatically check for updated drivers, select "no not at this time"
10. Click on "install from a list or a specific location"
11. Click "don't search I will chose the driver to install"
12. Click "have disk"
13. Click "browse"
14. Click "Local Disk C Drive"
15. Click "util"
16. Click "drivers"
17. Click "mouse"
18. Click "Fidmous"
19. Click "open"
20. Comes up with "C:\util\drivers\mouse"
21. Click on ok and select "touch pad"
22. Click "next" and you're good to go
All of this would mean you actually downloaded the proper drivers from Panasonic...if you haven't, this will not work.
This mini tutorial will work for all drivers, just change the driver name and location to suit.
