Introduction
This is a touchpad replacement guide for the ASUS E210MA-TB.CL464BK, sometimes just referred to as E210MA. The part allows the user to move around the mouse and functions as a numpad. The added complexity of the touchpad means that it is particularly susceptible to losing sensitivity so the user may want to replace it.
