    Hi all,

    My Yoga 2 Pro is not quite a year old and I'm pretty sure the issue is not a hardware problem, but some sort of oddity with the Synaptics hardware and/or Windows 8.1/10.

    Frequently, when I am using the touchpad to move the cursor around the screen, the cursor will stop moving completely. Sometimes. right and left clicks (press clicks, not taps) still work but the cursor doesn't move. Sometimes, tapping the screen moves the cursor, and other times it does not. I can't tell if this is related to CPU utilization or what, but it is really annoying. I find myself just frantically gliding around on the touchpad until something frees up the cursor.

    I've tried both the drivers on Lenovo's site and the reference drivers from Synaptics.

    Anyone else seen this?
