    Hey guys, I got an N51Vn a little while back from a member here. I loaded it with Win 7 64-bit and got most of the drivers I needed to make it work. I'm having a problem with the cursor jumping around while you're typing. It's my wife's laptop and it drives her crazy each time she's in the middle of an email or letter and the cursor just jumps and starts typing characters in the wrong spot. It also sometimes highlights large areas of text and of course erases it as soon as the next key is pressed. Any ideas of what's going on, or how I can fix it?

    Also, I never did get the touch keys up near the base of the monitor working. Is there a way to get them working with 64bit? I see that Asus has *some* downloads listed for Win 7 x64 but it's only BIOS, wireless, and some manuals, etc. No drivers really yet.

    Thanks for any help/advice you guys can give.

    Mike
