Troubleshooting multi-gesture touchpad

I was having Microsoft windows XP operating system installed on my desktop. Due to the advancement in technology I have switched myself from desktop to Packard Bell dot laptop and installed windows 7 operating system on it. The Packard Bell dot Netbook has an in built 5-in-1 memory card reader and Bluetooth feature. From last few days I am facing problems with my Packard Bell dot laptop touchpad. I need a solution which will help me in troubleshooting touchpad issue on my laptop.
