    Hello

    This used to happen with my old Acer all the time and now its happened with my G51J. The scroll on the touchpad just stopped working? I'm sure it will come back randomly at some point, but why does this happen? Is there a way to prevent it, or even quickly fix it?

    Thanks

    Everytime I watch a movie on YouTube or do some random stuffs while browing the internet, my touchpad scrolls stop working, so I have to click somewhere else and press "Spacebar".. then it start working again...

    Not sure if this is the problem you have, but a fix for this would be nice too xD

    How you tried going to the Asus drivers page for your laptop on there web? Could be something you can fix with a drivers update.

    www.vip.asus.com this is assuming your product is registered with them for Warranty and support.
