No one has been able to help me yet, so I'm throwing down the gauntlet to all the techies out in space to help me with a critical problem. My touchpad on my Acer Aspire 5517 suddenly stopped working. I have checked to make sure the light is lit on the button that shows the touchpad and it is on. I have done the Fn-F7 function and again nothing. I would love to use a mouse except I can't because someone got angry with me and destroyed my USB ports. I'am desperate for this to be fixed so that I can work. I hope someone has an answer for me. Thank you so much.
 
take it to an accredited acer repair depot.if someone destroyed all your usb ports,and i find this a little incredible,what else did they do.this isnt something as simple as tapping a key,but rather a physical problem that will have to be troubleshooted and repaired by a competant repair tech.

First off thanks a million to the person who was kind enough to answer me. It's unfortunately true that a demented programmer destroyed all my USB ports because he was ticked off! But the problem I had with the touch pad has been resolved. There's a tiny button that's left of the power button that was lit, I guess it's not supposed to be so I turned it off and now my touchpad works! But there is no getting around the fact that I need a new laptop. Who's got some recommendations for me? Has to be moderately priced and fast!! I'm very into photos too. Thanks everyone!
