    I got my new 6860 (woot!) and performed a clean install of Vista x64. Reinstalled all of the drivers without any trouble and everything works great - except the touchpad. It will work for a minute or 2, but then it freezes. I have to kill the Synaptics process in the Task Manager and restart it from the Synaptics folder. Then the same thing will happen.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver in Safe Mode - still no success. I didn't have any problems before the clean install. Anybody have any ideas?
