Recently got this Sharp PC-9000 laptop for 5 dollars. I replaced the HDD with a 2GB CompactFlash card (the bios will only take up to 3.7 GB). I installed Windows 95 on it, but I can't find drivers for the trackpad, and it doesn't even show up in Device Manager. I've been having to use a PS/2 mouse. I can't even find much info about it online. Any help would be appreciated.

Usually, any laptop trackpad automatically detected in Dos or Windows, if it's not detected, that mean broken/disconnected cable, or not working trackpad board.

Did you ran new hardware wizard?

Yes, but it didn't show up.
