Dell Driver install pain

 Alright... I've figured out the reason of why my touchpad was so buggy to the point making a circle was glitched out. NO DRIVERS! HA NO BRANDED DELL DRIVERS WHAT A LOSER!!!!!1 (2009)

But being honest here, the touchpad was a little bugged out before I applied the driver and for some reason it wasn't installing... And here's where our journey begins holy shit let's go because this ain't too long so uh fuck the max g reuploader.

So it all starts when I first installed Windows to this thing (this is like the 3rd install) after I replaced the hard drive with a Kingspec SSD... Not the greatest but at least it's damn fast when not plugged into a charger.

I went to the Dell website to find the drivers (the Wi-Fi and Intel video drivers were already pre-installed on the Windows installation, yeah 8.1 is indeed way bad than 10) and I downloaded the touchpad driver, however for some reason it didn't download and instead appeared the following message: "No need to install Synaptics touchpad drivers". Yeah bad msgbox() code but whatever that entertains me a fuck ton!

So I tried tinkering with the driver manager on Windows trying to update the drivers and for some reason the touchpad was recognized as a PS/2 mouse, weird.

So I tried opening it with WinRAR and it recognized 3 files inside, a WinMDF... whatever file name that was, an inf file, and the setup of course. So I dragged them to the desktop and I went back to the device manager, clicked on the mouse, updated it, clicked on manually install drivers, chose the mdf file or whatever extension that was and applied.

And it was finally downloaded and it now works damn fine.

Now I got the macOS pointers for some reason on my Windows machine and it looks cool.

So uh, see y'all tomorrow and maybe I'll write something way interesting than just a 13-year-old tinkering with not complicated tech.
