As far as the mouse pad or touch pad problem, make sure you have the latest Synaptics drivers. I'm using 8.1.2.0 with a date of 8/1/05 They work great and have all types of settings and with the config. that I'm using I don't mind using the pad over a mouse.

You cannot use both at one time on most laptops...it's one or the other.
