hi,

kindly help me.
i have HP Pavilion dv6-2138ca Entertainment Notebook PC and windows 7. my mouse"s scroll is not working. In device manager I have ps/2 compatible mouse, when i try to install synaptics recommended version 14.0.0.3 A  it says installation status failed due to error. I had synaptics version 14.0.0.3 so when i came to update that  it said out of dated so i uninstalled it from programs, then I just saw in device manager  ps/2 compatible mouse instead of synaptics, when i updated ps/2 compatible mouse it says this is up to date but  i mouse properties the device settings tab disappears and scroll is not functioning. May i uninstall ps/2 compatible mouse and if incase i uninstalled it then how many chances are there for me  to install synaptics recommended versio 14.0.0.3. or is this possible uninstalling ps/2 compatible mouse will not create any problems like mouse is not working etc.

Simply, i want toa ask you that can i uninstall ps/2 compatible mouse and install synaptics for making scroll works . Thanks

Hi,

 

I believe you need something like this:

 

    mousex.png

 

You may want to try this version which is - 16.0.1.0:

 

ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56501-57000/sp56713.exe

 

before installing it first completely uninstall the current version you have installed

 

Good luck.
