Precision M4400 Owner's Lounge

Haven't had any issues w/ my 4400 doing that. I've run mine pretty hard using a 90W adapter w/o any shortage (the one that shipped w/ it was 130W).

 

I guess that I am new to the Elite M4400 club and was wondering if anybody else has a problem with what it seems is like lag with the trackpad ? I adjusted all the settings and it still seems to lag . I tried to install the driver again but have had no luck. Thanks Specs in my sig

 

Welcome to the club!

Yes, you and everyone else. You'll find tons of posts complaining about it. I even devoted an entire section to the touchpad in my M4400 review.

Cliff Notes: the touchpad sucks, and there's nothing that can be done about it.

 

i dont have any lag on my touchpad. i just disabled touch check and it solved the problem

 

Disabled here too, yet the problem remains. It's not really lag; the touchpad simply suddenly tracks very slowly, or not at all, apparently at random.

It's not the drivers; the touchpad has the same problem with a clean Windows install.

 

I agree, the touchpad is definitely quirky. I have learned to deal with it. Still, you would think that a laptop in this class would have a touchpad as good as a netbook's at least.

 

I have the same problem. Toshiba drivers and disabling touch-check along with tapping seems to solve most of it, but the pad will still act funny from time to time.

 

My touchpad is also slow and track my finger with delay (lag). But what I found interesting is that there is no lag when I am using touchpad in BIOS. So it seems that it is driver issue more then hardware.

Hey Sofian,

price seems quite good, i paid about €300 more but that was Sept. last year.
Be sure to get the Windows 7 upgrade!
