Problems with Synaptics touchpad not able to scroll in Guest OS (Windows XP)

I have an HP Pavilion laptop running VMware player 3.0.0 build-203739 with VMware tools. The guest is Windows XP. The Synaptics touch pad works in the guest but the scroll region does not scroll. Device manager shows a HID-compliant mouse and VMware Pointing Device. Installed in the Mouse and other pointing devices category.

 

Has anyone been able to get the scroll region to work? I tried using the manufacturers drivers but VMware didn't like that and it gave me the BSOD repeatedly until I removed the Synaptic drivers. I tried to search the Web, FAQ's, and support site but didn't find any useful information.

 

I like using VMware Player but it is a bit of a pain to not have the scroll on the touchpad.

 

 

Thanks for the help.
