    This Satellite runs Vista & when I first got it (a week ago) it had a scroll funtion where a little icon appeared (somehow by touching the TouchPad) & allowed a faster scroll. Somehow I have turned this feature off or uninstalled it. Some advice on how to enable this option again would be helpful.

    How do I make a Boot CD in case I have a failure somehow.

    Thanks,
    Dale :confused:

    I don't know if this will help, but if you click start, then go into control panel, then click mouse, then click device settings on the far right hand side you'll get to all the touchpad settings. There are a number of settings that you might find useful. If you click on pointer motion, then click edge motion, then click edge motion speed, you can choose to adjust the speed by the pressure on the scroll regions of the touchpad (which are on the right hand edge and bottom edge of the touch pad).

    Hope that helps.

    None of this worked as a lot of options were missing. I went to the Toshiba site and downloaded a driver and presto, all's good. Thanks.
