when I pull up menu, the curser is in the search field. I cannot move it down to type in a data field, such as user name, email etc. Everything I try removes the key board and it is very difficult to get the search field to reappear again so I can start over, and start over and start over. what am I missing?

.. 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.

There is a mouse lock icon that I occasionally hit. It is on the touch pad. At first I thought It was broken, but it was just that.

I use the touchpad only and have not had problems with it. Sometimes the cursor jumps when I am typing, but I have had this occasionally with other computers. Hope this is helpful.

On the laptop I recieved, the entire screen is a touchpad. Just like a tablet. I'm quite sure what you mean by "the left side"

No there is not a mousepad...I use either the keyboard or use the touch screen.

If you are referring to the touchpad there is a feature called palm rejection and you adjust the sensitivity. It seems to be pretty smart and that if you slide your palms on the touch pad it minimizes movement of the pointer. My favorite trick though is to use a USB mouse, and then change the setting that disables the touchpad while mouse is active. It allows me to use a regular mouse but if unplug and need to use my laptop to do something really quick i can either use the touch screen or unplug the usb key and then the touchpad is active right away, plug the usb key back in and the touchpad automatically turns off. It even has a nice amber light to remind you the touchpad is inactive.

UPDATE TO THIS ISSUE: I went to Acer's Store (it's on your desktop unless you've deleted it), clicked on Tech Support and then Email Support. If you complete the form there and write a brief message, the site will come up with suggestions on the erratic cursor. I forget how it was labeled but it shows in a different window just how to adjust the sensitiviity settings to eliminate the issue most of us are experiencing! Try it, I think you'll be happy with the results.

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.

I wish I could. I think the Seller should have some Link or info to. I know I wanted to Lock the Touch Pad since I was using Keyboard so the document would not Errouniously move on me. But, I just worked around it and put a cut out from a file folder over it taped where It would not feel the sensitivity of my hands hitting the Touch Pad. If I need the Touch Pad, I just fold it back. Hope You get something from the Vendor on this. Good Information to have and I agree it should be somewhere.ScoTT

Sorry. Can't live without my mousepad. Try contacting the manufacturer. Sometimes they are more than willing to help.

I'm having this problem as well and so does many other people on the web. The touchpad and keyboard behaves erratically. touchpad is pretty much useless so I have to resort to using external USB mouse. This laptop needs to be recalled. Can someone sue Asus to recall this laptop? Last Asus laptop I'm going to buy because of poor service.
