I was waiting for the check for a while, but then just went on and updated (and yes, I have this "bad" chip). Everything went fine (I updated two or three times a couple of years back). Not sure if there was a significant improvement, because by the time I updated I had touchpad turned off and used external mouse, because it was pretty unbearable. I have very vague recollections of how bad it was. At any rate, I have trackpad turned on now and it seems usable, so probably things got better.

Very last would be then its awfully loud clicking Smile
