Hi there.
Can anybody tell me how to get my scroll button (the four-way button between my "left click" and "right click") working again.
I had to reformat my Acer Apsire 5630 and since then my Vol+,Vol- and scroll buttons don't work. i can live without the vol buttons but i really miss the scroll button.......
Any help........PLEASE!!!!

Reinstall the acer software suite, but this is a 12v forum. Now if you want to know how to overvolt that USB bus, welllllll... that's another story.

And that would have what to do with a mouse/keyboard application suite? ------------- Ideal - cmon dude, add to topics in a useful manner, not stuff that is obvious.

No. I can build you one out of the spare alarm parts I have. He won't run fast but, he's electrifying, none the less.

He might just have the PC in his car. But just as the dude on the horse stated, if you install the acer software, your volume controls and scroll functions should return. It may also be the drivers for the Synaptics Touchpad. https://support.acer-euro.com/drivers/notebook/as_5630.html

"build me a pony...?" ROFL!!! That's one of the funniest things I've read here in a long time! Thanks!

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
