    I'm curious, does anyone else have any problems with the G51VX-RX05 and other similar models' (G71, etc.) touchpad? Specifically, I seem to have issues with the left click button and was wondering if anyone else had or have any issues with it as well. Mine is that it seems to get stuck (though is still clickable) and prevents me from tapping or left clicking. Right clicking, however, works. I have to use an external mouse. It is a curious thing. It seems to work off and on, though it primarily is more of a hindrance than actually working. I personally think the issue is with the left mouse button itself as opposed to a driver as when I "disable" the buttons, the touchpad functions fine.

    Edit: Determined it is NOT a driver issue.

    Can I assume then that everyone with a G-series laptop has a perfectly working touchpad with absolutely no issues whatsoever?

    Bumping for prosperity in hopes of an answer (22 Hours; No Response).
