    Hoping someone can shed some light on the issue I'm having... I have a Samsung Series 7 Chronos Model # NP700Z5C-S02UB. The problem I'm having is when I'm playing a game and I use the touch pad for the mouse. I use the W, A, S, and D buttons on the keyboard and when I go to move something on the touch pad and I hit two of the keys on the keyboard simotaneously the touch pad stops working. I have to release one of the keys on the keyboard to continue using the touch pad. At times I'm using the touch pad and attempt to hit a key on the keyboard and touch pad will go out. Any one know a solution to this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    By default, the pad is disabled when you are using the keyboard. There is, IIRC, a fix by doing a registry hack. Read this thread, starting from the end.
