i just got this...notebook and I am trying to write my posts...and sometime I just barely brush my thumb across the touch pad...and boom! i've lost my post..and have to start writing over...does anyone know how to "fix" this problem...is it too sensitive?

Yikes! It does take a while to get used to those touchpads, doesn't it?

 

I'm sorry I don' have any advice for you, but I hope you enjoy your new laptop!

why not to use your touch pad. You could always just use the tab button to select buttos. You can use page down to scroll.

Ok, here's how to modify the sensitivity of the touchpad (if you have windows xp, if you have an apple computer good luck): First go to Control Panel, select Printers and Other Hardware, now select mouse and a window similar to display properties will appear, select the Touch tab and you should find the sensitivity settings.

Man this is really starting to drive me NUTS!! Starting to really #$$$ me off!!!

I've backed off the sensitivity on this touch pad...3 settings below the middle, and it's still doing it's own thing....could it be the "curser' it seems when i just kinda fly over any "linked" word on the screen ....click...there I go...off to where I don't want to...losing my work..is there a setting for that too!
