Hi! I have no clue what exactly i did, but i was using my touch pad and a little mini scroll bar came up, and wouldn't go away. ive searched the internet but nothing worked/the things they suggested didn't show up as an option. my laptop is on Windows 7.

this is what it is, since i don't know if my description really told you anything:

Lots of references to this on the 'net.

 

One solution:

 

(Solved) - Annoying little scroll bar

 

Solution:  Switch OFF virtual scrolling in Synaptics touchpad settings.

There is no such option as "Switch OFF virtual scrolling in Synaptics touchpad settings."

(Running Pavilion dv7, Win7)

Under "scrolling" there are two options: "pointing" and "PalmCheck enhanced."  No mention of "virtual scrolling."
