lol....gotta love all the problems with Google's new browser. Few software programs work perfectly in their first version, otherwise there would be no need to keep releasing new versions. A search engine company isn't going to make a perfect browser right off the bat. Google's strength is search and marketing that feature...they are not experts in stand alone software.
Well just test that same thing with a better web browser. I doubt it is your laptop. I'm sure it's just a bug in Google Chrome.
it's a problem with the synaptics touchpad and google chrome. i just upgraded to the newest chrome version 0.2.149.29 yesterday and it's still not resolved. coincidentally, this was a problem with synaptics touchpads and firefox a couple years ago where it just wouldn't scroll at all. there was never a firefox browser fix, but the resolution was to update to the newest driver at the synaptics.com website.
