    Hey, I though I saw a thread with this issue the other day, however after looking 10 pages through and searching, I found nothing.

    Maybe people can link me to the issue/solution to this. Or tell me if it has a fancier name in this community.

    It's the mouse pad that kinda "lag" scrolls across the screen... thx.

    Yes, thanks a lot - I'll read it.

    We should have a sticky thread here, with links to threads about certain known errors/solutions... :)

    no worries : )
    short version on that thread btw (to save you reading 50 odd pages!) - known issue - needs BIOS update to sort , alienware rep said end of June, now moved to Mid-End of Aug (as quite complex to fix )

    lol, i thought this post was about the mouse pad that came free with your m17x r2, as in the mouse pad where your actual mouse sits. hahahaha.

    theres no solution yet for the trackpads using synaptic drivers. use the windows drivers. they work period.
