    I've installed the Two Finger Scrolling proggy mentioned in another thread--many thanks for the link--but I seem to be doing something wrong.

    About 1/3 of the time when I drag my fingers down the touchpad it results in the screen size getting really tiny, rather than scrolling. I can't work out what I'm doing wrong. Can anyone please help?

    I'm using XP Home on the 120Gb version of the lappy. I've only had it a couple of days and haven't used a touch pad before, so it's all a bit new to me.

    Thanks for any help.

    Doh! Thank you--for some reason I'd thought that was only relevant to Vista users. I've disabled it now, and it seems to have cured the problem.

    Thank you very much indeed :mrgreen:
