FlashPlayer fullscreen mode disables Synaptics touchpad scrollbar

[biglarryk56]

I have a number of friends who have HP Pavilion dv9000 series laptop PCs with
Synaptics touchpads v 6.2 that have problems running Flash objects in IE7 in
fullscreen mode...when running a Flash object in fullscreen mode, after
pressing <esc> to exit fullscreen, we find that our touchpad's scrolling bar
won't function. Closing IE7 doesn't help either..the scrollbar won't function
in most cases unless the system is rebooted. I'm using Flash Player ActiveX
9.0.124.0 and Flash Player Plug-in 9.0.45.0 under Windows XP Media Center
[SP3]...any suggestions?

Fighting with the same problem while i have this notebook. Searched the web and
already know there are a lot of laptop owner with this error. Its a problem
between adobe flashplayer and synaptics. Couldn't find any solution since i
bought this notebook (1 year). Tried all synaptics driver. No help from the
manufacturers (adobe, synaptics), they don't care this problem. I'm affraid
there won't be any solution in the inmediate future.

I have the same problem. It happens with Firefox also. I have to kill
and restart SynTPEnh.exe every time it happens to get my scrolling
back. I'm surprised this has not been fixed yet. Any idea who is at
fault? Adobe/Macromedia or Synaptics?

I have this problem too. Pressing the space bar when this happens
works for me. Its not really a solution to the problem but at least it
gives me back the use of the scroll bar
