    I have the latest touch pad driver. How can i perform continuous scrolling?

    For example, imagine you had a 1000 page document and wanted to scroll from top to bottom. Continuous scrolling is a advanced touchpad gesture that allows you to scroll without lifting your finger/s from the touchpad. Without continuous scrolling, you'd have to do 1000 or so little flicker movements on the touchpad. I see the manual for the asus lists the feature, but it doesn't seem to work in practice.

    I have also seen such advertisement and been unable to figure out how to do it.

    Also, I have problems with buffering youtube videos in Google Chrome (buffering simply stops after about 30 sec, and i have to click at :31 to begin the buffering again, and then again about 30 sec later, etc.).
    Also, I have received blue screens while doing too graphic-intensive stuff such as playing games, or watching full-screen videos.


    Anyone with more information or similar connections please reply!

    p.s. I also have been displeased with the mic gain (it seems to pick up internal noises and increase the mic gain to transmit them during video chats, or voice chats, as if they are my voice (really loud).) This becomes irritating for the other person. Let me know if you have similar opinions.

    Hi, I came to this page through google because I had the same question, but I just figured it out: My laptop (asus R500v) does have the feature, but you have to turn it on in Control panel > Mouse > ELAN tab (at least, ELAN is the name of my touchpad) > Options > Multi finger > Scrolling , you can turn on the "continuous scrolling" feature there instead of "inertial scrolling". If you click the play button in the corner you also get a little video demonstration :p You might also want to crank up the scrolling speed there because initially it is a bit slow.
    The cursor doesn't seem to change shape as is stated in the manual, but continuous scrolling works really well for me now. I hope this works for someone else too.
