Hi,

If the touchpad has a Windows Start entry or a Control Panel applet, you can try to adjust its settings including sensitivity.

When using Firefox everything related to the Dell Synaptics touch pad no longer functions. I literally have to restart my computer to be able to use my touch pad again.
