Hi all,

I've recently loaded Windows XP onto my MacBook using BootCamp and one thing I have not entirely liked was that the usual two-finger scroll is at some moments laggy and unresponsive. I know its not the trackpad as it works on OSX. Is there an odd driver missing or am I crazy?

Thanks

Edit: Noticed there is a Windows forum, could someone of higher power than I move it there if at all possible?
 
I have the same problem. Just installed Home SP2 on my new mac pro, with bootcamp 3.0 (and updated the drivers to 3.1 and 3.2 respectively).

When scrolling up or down, it just lags tremendously and skips over a large amount of the page (instead of scrolling smoothly). Same problem happens when clicking and dragging on a program or window to move it around, it lags.
But the trackpad itself responds fine, clicking and moving the mouse around.

Going to try and install sp3 and see if that does anything, but i suspect it to be a driver problem. This is my 2nd time reinstalling drivers and xp and getting the same problem.
 
Bumping because I have the same problem.

I also had this problem when installing Just XP SP3 on a normal computer. However, it was fixed with nvidia drivers.

However on Bootcamp, you can't just install drivers like a normal PC, 'cuz it is very different in operation, correct?

What do? (I am also running SP3 on Boot Camp)
