Two fingers are better than one.

Tell me how to make this laptop, running Vista 64, do the Mac two-finger scroll.

It's not just installing a driver. You'll need a trackpad that supports multiple touch gestures. As Apple owns the patents on this (I believe) you may not have much luck here.

Try this app. (It's dependent upon having a compatible Synaptics touchpad, and yours might fit.)

It looks like the two-finger scroll utility doesn't have Vista 64 support, so you're out of luck there. You'll either have to use a different OS, wait for the utility to be updated, or find something else.

Where do you see that, majick? There's an issue report related to Vista 64 that shows some people having trouble, and others getting it to install.

Response by poster: No dice. It's not a Synaptics touchpad.
