    Hey fellow M15x owners.. I have a quick tip to share with you regarding the M15x's Touch-Pad..

    Just follow these simple instructions:

    1. Right-click the "alien head" in the lower right-hand corner of the taskbar & select "Alienware AlienFX Editor" from the pop-up menu.

    2. Once the "Alienware AlienFX Editor" / "Alienware Command Center" has opened up, Select the "AlienTouch" tab on the bottom & then select the "Sensitivity" option on the left.

    3. Under the "Sensitivity To Finger Pressure" section, Drag the marker all the way to the left so it's set on "Light Touch" & finally click on "Apply"

    You should then find that the Touch-Pad is alot more responsive & much more enjoyable to use. :)

    I recommend everyone who owns an Alienware M15X to apply this tweak.

    Thanks for reading & I hope the tip helps. ;)
