Weird touchpad sensitivity issue with Predator Helios

I have a one month old Predator Helios 300. The speed sensitivity of my touchpad keeps changing randomly & lowering from the default one & feels like I'm literally dragging the mouse pointer while some other force is acting on it. Then in a few minutes it switches back to normal, it just keeps doing this. The two finger scroll speed remain unchanged though.

The driver is fine & updated also I checked my BIOS but it didn't have the Advanced touchpad option which I saw on some posts, but I doubt that's the issue because most of the time it works fine & then randomly just doesn't for some time.

    Yes I have the same problem. I didn't know how to put forward the question though. I think it happens when touching the touchpad for a long time without too much movement.

    Mine just happens randomly, in between using the touchpad when it's working fine & all of a sudden the speed reduces and then I have to drag my finger from one corner of the touchpad to the other while it just doesn't want to move! ***** weird, and then all of a sudden it becomes normal.

    This weird thing happened to me in my old laptop too. So i think its a prob with win 10.
