Hey everyone, I just installed Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit edition on my MBP with Boot Camp. I installed all the boot camp drivers that came with it, and everything seems fine except one thing. The two finger trackpad scrolling is horribly jumpy and fast! Is there a fix?

I think that's normal. Mine has the same thing. It scrolls way too fast.

I have the same problem as well. It must be a problem with the driver because it is only jumpy in specific programs for me.

Yup, one two-finger swipe and I'm at the bottom of the page. Annoying, but whatever.

I use XP, and it still does it. Couldn't bring myself to use Vista.

You should be able to change the scroll speed in the mouse control panel. Well hopefully anyway.

Remember though that this is an Apple driver problem, not a windows one.

I did that and didn't work, I'm using XP. Still, with this little error and the sound drivers thing that took me a couple of tries to sort, it's the best windows machine I've ever used.
Of course, xp pales in comparison to mac os x!
