^^that's not a solution. that's buying a whole other computer.

i think we're talking more of a driver or software update or change...

you have to uninstall the dell touchpad driver and reinstall the latest driver directly from synaptics.

i still haven't been able to tweak it to get it to do the 2 finger scroll, but this is the only way it can happen. i'll keep working on it...
