Ok. I got the info. I looked on Dell's download site, and it asked for some system info (OS, Model #, etc.) and then I got this back:
Alps GlidePoint/StickPointer, v.5.4.102.12, A09 Release Date: 01/18/2005 Description: Alps Touch Pad Driver
so that's the brand of it. is there a way to edit your .dll file to operate for a "Alps Glide Point" touchpad?

Check under : control panel / system / hardware tab/ device manager/ mice and other pointing devices
It has to say something like : Synaptics ps/2 port pointing device.
If you do have a synaptics, install the proper drivers and then try my experimental external:
