Touchpad doesn't scroll smoothly on presario cq57

buy a usb mouse and forget the touchpad, you can try removing the touchpad then restart the laptop then let it find it again and it will reinstall the device. But the problem will probably return. I had a nightmare with this problem on a compaq, which i gave up fixing as it just kept recurring and i purchased a wireless mouse for it
