    It looks that there is new driver for synaptics touchpad:
    http://support.acer-euro.com/drivers/ftp/ftp.html
    Has someone tried this driver? I'm using now "standard" driver (from synaptics web site) to use media keys in Winamp. Maybe this new driver from Acer has this feature and media keys could be used in other programs than only Windows Media Player?

    Hi guys,

    Yes i have visited the site.
    The new driver looks to be for 64 bit OS.

    Can it work for 32 bit Home Premium?

    And natively media buttons may be used only in Windows Media Player (not in Winamp for example)?
