    After just two days of getting my LW70-J3KA the right touchpad button has failed. It wont work in any application even after reinstalling the drivers and trying various other things.

    I plugged a USB mouse into the laptop and could use the right mouse button the mouse no problems at all so it is definitley a hardware problem with the laptop.

    I called up the Good Guys (who I purchased it off) and they are going to replace the whole notebook, which they should! It is virtually dead on arrival.

    Just wondering if anyone else has had the same or similar problem?

    Thanks.

    Guess you just got a faulty one :eek:

    DOA's don't usually happen - but glad to see you got a replacement!

    If an LG notebook is faulty within the first 14 days, it will be replaced at the place of purchase. If that can't be done for whatever reason, it can be swapped at a service centre. This takes longer as the replacement has to be sent from the wharehouse.
