nothing, I know I keep repeating myself but finder isn't running so.. the only things I can access is what is on my dock, when I try command space bar i get the same bong noise as when i try to do expose but have no windows open so..

stuck on this one and it's starting to get to me, trying to boot off the leopard disk with the 123 but for some reason it won't even do that anymore I have no idea what is going on anymore besides reformatting and going that way but i'm not that type of person like all my friends lol they always say screw it, i always try and save it but.. whatever, i'll keep you updated


-Dell Mini 9 - Refurb $269: Obsidian Black, 32GB STEC SSD, 8GB Kingston SDHC (left from previous owner), 2GB 667Mhz RAM, 1.3MP Camera, Bluetooth, Mac OSX 10.5.7
-Dell e1705 - New $1055: ATi X1400 OC/ed 175% faster, XPS 1710 Heatsinks, XPS 1710 Body
e1705 is old, it needs not to be upgraded, but rather be replaced.

the two finger scroll or edge scrolling does not work for me. but tapping the trackpad to click does work.

i had previously installed the WindTrackpadBundle_v6.0.1.zip downloaded from http://forums.msiwind.net/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=10109

any way to check if if it is installed correctly

Tested the new file. Again, all goes as described but I don't see the driver to be operational.
No matter what I select at the new pref pane makes any difference. Strange.

Downloaded the installer and did everything the text file said. Works perfectly! Thank you so much for making this available to the public.

To add to my 'bad' luck. I did try to install the DellEFI 1.1and I ended up with non booting mini. It stops at the white screen with the apple and the spinner spinning forever...
I'm off to see how I recover from this mess.

I think the this could be the root of some of the problems. If you have installed any trackpad drivers with a different name these scripts wont overwrite it, therefor you will have to kexts trying run at the same time. If you want to install these drivers you need to delete the old one first.

Try booting off the thumb drive you made to boot the lepoard drive at the begining. After you start booting off the thumb drive hit Esc and choose drive 81. After you boot reinstall dellefi. I hope this helps.
