    maybe perhaps there are lots of you who have already done this but i was very thrilled by the fact that its now possible for windows to get this amazing way to scroll.

    i got this info from some tutorial here on configuring this on a samsung nc10 but it worked just fine on my 6920g

    note: there are a couple of instances where two-finger scroll will not start-up because syntpenh.exe is not yet loaded (synaptics drivers). in that case just relaunch if it fails. usually it doesnt happen. also if application is running admin mode, it does not work. however there is a solution to this. if you're familiar with using task scheduler, you can use it to run at login with highest credentials so that even admin-level apps can experience two-finger scroll. in my experience, moving the synaptics driver to startup with highest credentials as a task instead of a startup reduces the error that occurs on the two-finger-scroll utility that says synaptics driver not loaded.
