Open the file tp4table.dat in the directory \windows\system32\ using Editor. Before the following line: ;; Pass 1 rules (These rules run last) insert the following line: *,*,soffice.bin,*,*,*,WheelStd,0,9 Take care, its soffice.bin, not soffice.exe... If this does not help, repeat the same procedure with the file tp4table.datin c:\Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP.
