    Hi any one experienced probs with the m17 alienware touch pad playing cod 4 / waw, farcry all ect....just purchased this computer..

    works fine without playing games.

    however while playing games it jumps eratically when running or turning will make my player look in all directions even when i take care not to touch the pad with my hand.

    changed all the synaptics settings like touch sensitivity double click ect..

    alienware have tried everything

    sent it to alienware ireland sent back still not working, and now my key pad flaps about and touchpad still not fixed

    works fine while playing games with a mouse but have been playing with a touch pad for so long so didnt want to start using a mouse, also this system cost me £1400 so it should work...

    bought an xbox 360 controller but cant use it yet

    any help would be really apreciated, thanks
