Hi, Do you mean your touchscreen or touchpad? There have been numerous complaints about Dell’s 5000 series touchpads being too sensitive and causing the exact same behaviour you’re experiencing. The only solution to come out of it was to turn off your PC, gently wipe clean your touchpad with a clean dry cloth, then cover it with a cut to size mobile phone screen protector. This is a quote from the following link which says it all After all this time the screen protector has been proven to be the only solution to this weird touchpad problem that affects the inspiron 3000, 4000, 5000, and 7000 series. I have the 5547. http://en.community.dell.com/support-for…
What do you mean by refreshing? Did you also reinstall all the drivers for your laptop: Click here. Especially the touchscreen drivers.
i have the SAME issue on my dell 5559, the bottom right corner, the taskbar keeps refreshing, the icons keep refreshing and stuff, and my touchscreen isnt working at ALL i tried to reinstall NEW OS, i even tried to put another hard drive from another laptop with different windows version. it still happens, the bottom right corner of my screen somehow keeps getting touched or my touchscreen is damaged with no physical sign of damage its like my screen is being touched non stop by something, so when i touch it with my fingers it doesnt do nothing. my whole desktop keeps refreshing, its not a SOFTWARE or OS issue, ive tried reinstalling/diff harddrive from diff laptop. the problem is hardware laptop is less than a year old. no damage never dropped always kept in laptop case, yet the touch screen is so annoying. the laptop lags and freezes due to constant refreshing of desktop and taskbar refreshing
