    I've asked many many times before but no solutions.
    I have a ASUS G50VT-X1.
    When i view videos online such as Youtube and i Full Screen the video i will lose my scrolling ability in the touch pad, this is really starting to frustrate me. I've updated my Synaptics driver, and my NVIDIA driver.

    When the video is full screen, what do you want to scroll down to?
    I am just trying to imagine your problem but I cant see one. It is just the video that is shown on the full screen

    This is because the touchpad acts differently with flash. If you program activescript or use flash for anything you will be familiar with this. The solution on NON-fullscreen flash is to click outside of the object and scroll. There is no outside area to click on with fullscreen flash, so unless the flash applet has bound events to mouse scrolling triggers, it will not react to them.
