Hi all, My (now 1 year old) Optimus IV started to show wear on the touchpad surprisingly quickly - a black oval about an inch across. It looks pretty bad given rest of the cases is pretty much as new. Not had this happen on work laptops so was wondering if there is any solution - can you cover...

Hi, Just got my new optimus IV today. Installed Windows 8 and using the driver downloads from http://www.clevo.com.tw/en/e-services/download.asp for a W370ET have pretty much everything working (I care about) .... except sound through the speakers :( When you test audio, you get the animation...
