mmccho, How to disable the touchpad in Dell laptops?
This is the procedure you need to follow to disable the touchpad in your Dell laptop:
Go to the Control Panel. Under the Hardware and Sound’ options, click Mouse. On your Dell laptop, you’ll have a special tab called ˜Dell touchpad’ in the window that pops up. Click on the touchpad picture in the window. In the new window that appears, click Device Select. Click on the Disable radio button to disable the touchpad completely. If you want to disable the touchpad of your Dell laptop only when an external device like a mouse is attached, check the last option that says Disable Touchpad/Pointing Stick when external USB mouse is present
Thank You,
