touchpad lock button is not working

[charmstua]

I just purchased my laptop last year, November. It's HP Pavillion dm3. I usually lock the touch pad and use an external mouse. These past few days, the lock button just above the touch pad is not working anymore so i cannot lock it. Please help.

OK, So to start with, try and reinstall touchpad drivers and see if that fixes the issue...

if i could get the extact model number of the unit and OS it is running on, I can help you will the finding the driver as well

thanks, i tried it but it's really not working. the pin light beside it is still white which means it's unlocked.

it's supposed to be orange when locked.
