asus v6j touchpad

So i just replaced my touchpad as my old one(an asus replacement) seemed imprecise.
I can already notice the difference.
Problems of old one was:
They tightened the touchpad to much
They applied the ontop sticker thing bad
Or it was just a bad touchpad

I bought a spare one and it didn't come with the sticker thing so oh good for me it's helluva better than even the one my laptop came with
I also waxed it so its slicker lol..(but wow i had so many problems at first it made the detection all crazy.. then all of a sudden my laptop bsoded and my touchpad went normal... don'tk now what happend)

Anyways my question is.. Is there a way to make it so that the movement is a 1:1 ratio to how much it moves virtually?
i think the ibm touchpad does this
i already disabled the "Enhanced pointer precision"
is there anyway?

 

Have you tried messing with the pointer motion?

 

I'm not so clear on what you mean by this.

Also, I hope the waxing thing is a joke Because if it's not I'm sure it'll change the way the touchpad work leading to loss of precision etc.

What was the problem of the touchpad in the first place BTW? I also found the default settings to be extremely bad (you couldn't even tap to click with those settings, I'm not sure who devised them but he wasn't a very smart person) but after playing around with the settings the touchpad works perfectly, I still use it perhaps 20-30% of the time I use my laptop.

 

I am getting used to the touchpad on the V6j (just in time for it to leave), but I agree, it wasn't great without tweaking.

 

well actually my first touchpad that came with my laptop when i first got it, with default settings, could in fact tap click fairly well. Then a few months ago when asked for an all out replacement on stuff for my laptop they replaced my touchpad and all of a sudden it was terrible, i was wondering why i couldn't tap click and stuff and i found out that it was the new replacement touchpad that was the problem.

I have messed with the settings, yes.

The new one was so much more inaccurate compared to the old one i had. For example
if i just put my finger in the middle of the touchpad and i shift weight up in the 4 general directions (up,right,left down) it would not move or go in all the wrong places. With my older one it could this fine allso the third touchpad i got(ordered from asus's estore) was better than both of my last ones

I think it is better at tracking because of the little graphic that didn't come with the estore asus one. The graphic which is what you see the grid of dots and the little bar on the right is nothing but a transparent plastic sheet on top of a graphic that is also made of plastic that is glued to the touchpad surface. I can say that there is major improvement without having this little piece of cosmetics.


Oh and i did wax it out on the spur of the moment. I was like "wow this touchpad is so much better than my last two(as in movement itself i tested before i waxed it).. I needs to let me move smoother(my actual touch feeling not like on screen)!" so i decided to use that waxing thing that you use on hardwood tables and floors. And at first i thought it screwed up my touchpad forever as it was giving all sorts of erratic mouse movement and stuck positions, but then my computer blue screened.. and then when i restarted my touchpad worked perfectly + it was smooth.

Now what i mean about the 1 to 1 ratio thing is
For every movement i make on the touchpad i want it to correspond to the same length of movement on the cursor itself

Not(like it is now) if you move your finger fast it'll move alot more than if you were to move your finger slowly across the same "path" on the physical touchpad

Oh and wow the scrolling on the side is so much easier with this new touchpad
it only costs 8 dollars too .. FULL OF AWESOME

 

So you mean you want no acceleration when you are moving your finger faster.

Well, I don't really find a setting for that. The nearest thing I find is Slow Motion...

 

yeah thats what i am looking for

i know the ibm touchpads have been that way for a while i absolutely love them i wish i can put that touchpad into my laptop
