No 'mouse scroll wheel' function on Skyfire 3 laptop

[prentle]

Hi there,

Just received my new laptop. The Skyfire 3 17.3" and absolutely love it.

It seems the touchpad does not have scroll wheel functionality. Are there any recommended programs where I can emulate the scroll wheel function using keyboard shortcuts?

Thanks

I received my skyfire (though its 15,6) last monday and mine does have the feature. It works by sliding the finger up or down the right hand side of the pad. Also, I didnt install the mousepad driver, maybe that makes a difference, I dont know.

Thanks for that confirmation. It helped to know that I should be expecting a scroll wheel function. I had a browse on the drivers disk that came with the laptop. I found and installed the touchpad drivers and now it works perfectly.
