I have this model. I'm looking for a driver upgrade to improve screen contrast and stop the touchpad mouse from freezing. Any suggestions?

If you fins something please let me know. The contrast of the screen is terrible!!!

I just ordered this laptop. I read those reviews about the trackpad too, but found recent reviews stating that there is an update for the trackpad at Dell, that solves the problem.

.. and it's shipping now!BTW, the touchpad is a Synaptics and you can go up on their website, download the generic XP driver and end up with a touchpad which has both a scrolling feature and a tap-to-click feature.Got mine earlier from a different vendor and enhoying it quite a bit.

I'm on the same fence. While I haven't driven the Samsung, I did use the Asus today and found the click buttons extremely stiff. Do these "break in" and become easier to click after time? That was my only negative with this machine. How is the touchpad and clicking on the Samsung in comparison?

I have had black screen a couple times, but my problem is screen freeze or lockup so have to do a forced shut down, which I hate to do. My main problem is mouse cursor freezes, most of the time if I wait long enough it starts working again. So I bought a $40 mouse this time instead of $20 and the problem is still there. These same problems was also on my previous Toshiba and finally the techs gave up and said we can't help you.

Weird, I have been diggin the touchpad actually. Seems very intuitive to me and I have not yet used a mouse.I think your question is ultimately rhetorical though - if you only use a mouse the performance of the touchpad is irrelevant.

I just got my asus eee 1000h, installed sl.Lowest settings, before I start doing any tweaks, I'm getting about 7fps.Haven't got to try out the slvoice yet, but I can click on things inside the enviroment, which I couldn't ever get to work on the org hp mini note, I think that was becuase the hp mini note had a via chipset, which just wasn't that widely apectedI have a 2 gig ram card coming in soon, and I hope that gets me a few more fps out of my system.Will try to post again when I get that installed and tested

I bought my G7-2017us and it has been a very solid performer for me. It's the best I've EVER had. I have uploaded and downloaded and upgraded everything imaginable and never got the message you got. I know my Windows if definitely genuine.

Ghenghis, I appreciate the suggestions, but I can assure you it is not a memory problem - at least in my case. I do monitor my system and have no such issues. I did not have the middle-button problem with any other mouse, nor did I have a problem loading a page using the left or right mouse keys on the particular mouse in question.Again, thank you for the thoughtful suggestions. I hope you have (or have had) a better experience with this model of mouse.

Mouse pointer is stable with both of M525 mouses I have. I'd try on solid surface on another computer and send for repair if it still creeps.

It is running fine for me. The mouse cursor is only active on screen when you are using the mouse stick, otherwise the cursor is hidden.

I've been having issues with it freezing up while configuring 2950s and 2960s. Tripp-lite makes a better quality one but I can't think of the exact model.

I updated the graphics drivers to the latest from Intel and the computer started behaving very strangely. I could not control the brightness properly so I reinstalled the Asus drivers from 1005PE. As far as the broadcom driver, the one from Broadcom.com is working properly so far.

This is not answering your question directly but may shed some light. I have two T650's and both work great no freezing problems however I have noted this. I have two computers that I work from throughout the day 4 to 5 feet apart. I bought my first T650 tested it out for a week & it worked flawlessly. I liked it so much I bought a second. The moment I hooked up the second both the first one and the second one started doing odd things. ( right mouse click when I didn't want or a click and drag when I didn't want or a screen min/max when I didn't execute ) I over came the problem by flipping the switch to the off position on the touchpad I wasn't using. When I turn the pad back on there is now delay on coming back alive. I still haven't made the 2 week mark yet on my first purchase. I am running windows 7 on both computers. I love the many gestures I can perform with it running under win. 7. I also like the smooth and quick response when running my fingers over the pad. It only negative thing I have to say is if you have resently washed your hands and they are a little damp you fingers will not slide rather they stick slightly to the glass. Forgive any run one or spelling errors for I wrote this on my phone.

I am having problems with my touchpad as well. Hopefully someone has some answers. :(

The same thing has happened to me... started on Wednesday. Have you had any luck troubleshooting? Some videos work still, others don't. It seems to me like the TouchPad needs a Flash update.

Anyone have a problem with the mpuse pad....tried different drivers, but to no avail...when you use it it becomes very unstable...
