help from other laptop users

I received my laptop yesterday, and I noticed it doesn't have the little touchpad tool utility. I need this to set my scroll settings on the right side of the touchpad. Does anyone know where I can get this????


Help!! confused

How do you mean? Do you mean to set the scroll speed?

no, you know how the little program icon is in the bottom right? it looks like the touchpad with two little buttons under it? or can I do all that stuff right from the mouse settings?

Denise Richards Has Run-in with Paparazzi
Nov 9, 4:28 PM EST

The Associated Press

A spokeswoman for Denise Richards blamed aggressive paparazzi for a run-in that prompted the Hollywood actress to toss a pair of laptops from a balcony, causing minor injuries to two elderly women.

Howard Blank, a spokesman for the River Rock casino resort in the Vancouver suburb, confirmed an incident took place Wednesday evening.

Global TV reported Richards was filming a scene for the movie "Blonde and Blonder" when she allegedly confronted a photographer trying to take her picture. Richards threw the laptop computers off a balcony, hitting two elderly women sitting in the lobby below.

Paramedics were called but the women did not appear to be seriously injured.

"Based on the actions of the paparazzi, they are lucky their laptops were the only things that were thrown off the ledge," Richards' publicist, Nicole Perez, said in Los Angeles on Thursday.

A statement from "Blonde and Blonder" producer Dean Bornstein indicated that a "number of unauthorized persons" got onto the set and began "harassing members of the cast."

"While trying to stop the paparazzi, Denise Richards was involved in an altercation," Bornstein said. "To protect her safety she instinctively knocked the paparazzo's laptops off a ledge. Royal Canadian Mounted Police were called to the scene as a precaution and the case was soon closed. No charges were filed against Ms. Richards."

If there's not a specific utility in your taskbar for the touchpad, the settings are probabbly grouped in with your mouse settings. Go to the Control Panel, and open up the Mouse Properties, and look through the tabs - you might find some controls for your touchpad located there.

okay, the touchpad is set up if you just slide your finger up and down on the right side of it to scroll, the same thing a wheel on the mouse does. But, without that little program, there's nothing telling the PC that when I slide my finger to scroll.

Mine doesn't have the feature (as far as I know, anyway). I just slide over to the bar on the screen, double click then slide up/down. shrug

yeah, I can do that too, but it becomes tiresome when working on alot of long files. I found the driver on Sony's website, but I can't install it because I have to have administrator privileges on my laptop to do it. rolleyes
