    Just recieved my w3j and I'm very impressed. It was a headache to get my hands on one of these but it was definitally worth it. Screen looks great, booted up no problems, lightening fast wireless connect time....

    Scratch that....

    Right as I pressed post my finger tracker become un-responsive...

    I boot up the computer and the finger tracker works for about 10 seconds and goes completely unresponsive again.

    Sooo I guess I should try to use the recovery CD the first half hour of having the laptop? not so awesome.

    I know this sounds simple, but before you dig out the recovery CD..... cycling the touchpad en/disable hotkey button doesn't resolve the issue?

    Then disbale it! Go to start>run and type msconfig, in the last tab untick anything synaptic related. If that doesnt work uninstall it. I use my laptop trackpad without the syaptic drivers and its fine.
