    Yep,Update to the latest ATI driver.

    Its was a Win7 & ATI issue when Win7 was first released.The newer drivers should fix it.

    once we get the update for the same i will update it here!
    recommended updated drivers from ATI which should resolve this issue.Disable the zoom feature from the touchpad properties.
