that buttons were good instead of flat touch pad with no buttons its very hard to use as there is no separation between the buttons and the rest of touch pad.

Re: hp dm4 laptop touch pad

I have the HP Envy 14 and they both have the same trackpads. The buttons don't allow movement that low.  Try updating the trackpad driver and see if that helps.

HP Envy 14 i5-520m 2.93 Ghz, ATI Moblity 5650 1Gb, 6 Gb memory, 320 Gb harddrive, 1600 x 900

Re: hp dm4 laptop touch pad

Any solution for this? I have the same issue.

No big complaints about the trackpad EXCEPT when I place the cursor where I want it and try to left click down (with my thumb) on the lower left section of the trackpad and this causes the cursor to move and miss the mark. Simple fix would be disabling movement on lower area (button area of trackpad under line) and reserve it just for clicking... but no such option is provided. Any way of achieving this? Please?

Re: hp dm4 laptop touch pad

Same problem, but I can still return my computer.  This is such a stupid reason to go with another computer, just fix this problem HP.

Re: hp dm4 laptop touch pad

yea this is seriously making me consider returning the laptop i just bought, not to mention already adding to the bad press by posting this. This might also be synaptics's fault; the most-updated driver does not fix this problem. do we need to start a facebook protest group before HP addresses this problem?

Re: hp dm4 laptop touch pad

My dm4-2070-us has the same problem. I cannot type a text without chasing the cursor around. I am also considering returning the laptop  which is otherwise excellent. I'll be in favor of a facebook group unless HP addresses this silly problem as soon as possible.
