Hi just got this from havey norman as christmas present....whenever i type the cursor seems to move backward or to the next line...and also at one time, while I am working on it..it just auto off and on again by itself. Should I call havey norman or go striaght to Asus...Pls advise. It was bought on 10th Dec and since it was to be a christmans present, so I only start using it this few days...
Any suggestion on how to go about solving this...it is rather frustrating with the cursor moving backward or to next line when it is not suppose to.
thank you
By cursor moving, sometimes it's dirt on the arrow keys that's causing such an interference. Try blowing it and see the problems still persist.
As a netbook is quite small, people with larger palms (like mine) do occasionally brush against the touchpad. So it might be the case. (or for that matter some tape, or tape residue that's used to protect the netbook is left on the surface on the touch pad)
Else, I would reccommend you to send it down to Asus directly. Most electronic retailers do offer only 7 days 1 for 1 exchange, Harvey Norman (last checked) should follow the same procedure. (Unless changed).
