    Hello, I just recently got a E1705 for college, and its really nice. Sort of big, but I'm a big guy and not worried about that.

    I'm finding the touchpad's feature where you can click it to simulate clicking the mouse annoying, it keeps going off when I don't want it to. I've found the option to turn that off, but it also disables the gestures where when you click the corners of the screen you can simulate different things.

    So is there anyway to have the touch-to-click in the center of the touchpad, while keeping the gestures along the corner working?

    This is on Vista, also, if that has any effect.
