For me the 2cm area is a scroll bar (go to a long webpage and see if you can scroll with it by running a finger down it).
I thought so too at first, but it’s not working that way, I tried and it will work only if I first tap on the working area then drag my finger to the right side, but that’s not comfortable, I can just scroll with two fingers, as for the 2cm, it’s actually about 3cm and still kinda annoying to have this flaw, wonder what should I try to fix it, maybe reinstall the Touch Pad Software, but I don’t know where to get the install file of it… Would I lose my Drivers if I reinstall the Windows? also do you think a Bios update may solve it?
As for the Screen, I don’t have such problem (woohoo lol) tho the bottom corner of the laptop is squeaking even if I tight up the screws… other then that I Love the quality!
