Disable the touchpad to Inspiron 1764

Hello

I can't turn off the touchpad on my Dell Inspiron 1764.  I downloaded the latest drivers, but still no luck.  The access key does not work and when I go into the properties of the mouse, the touchpad is not visible - therefore, that I am unable to turn it off that way too.  I have Windows 7 64 bit, and I was wondering if this has something to do with the drivers work does not correctly.  At some point, when I updated the drivers, I got the error message that the pilots did not download correctly and to check for errors and fix them, I didn't click to correct mistakes and move forward.  I hope someone can help me with this!  I am constantly hitting the touchpad and jump around everywhere or completely destroy stuff.
Thank you!

For the Inspiron 1764, specifically, install the driver Alps Touchpad R275830 of http://drivers.softpedia.com/dyn-postdownload.php?p=101686&t=0&i=1

Run the driver to install it.

Reset

After the restart, find the Touchpad icon in your taskbar (at the bottom right by default), and then right-click to bring up the menu.

Select Touchpad properties

In the Touchpad properties, click the device that you want to select

There is a checkbox at the bottom of the dialog box to the box 'disable the Touchpad/Pointing Stick when the mouse USB's present external

Assuming you have an external USB mouse connected, your touchpad should now be disabled. I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, YMMV on other operating systems

  • Inspiron N7010 can not disable the Touchpad

    I have an Inspiron N7010, Windows 764 bit, it was determined that the hard drive was once again, therefore, dell sent me a new hard drive, I made an image of the system on an external hard drive, then installed the new hard drive without any problem.   BUT after getting thru all the updates I noticed the touchpad has been activated and I always use a usb mouse, so I like the touch pad disabled.

    She used to take a minute to turn it off, now nothing works going on at the control panel and mouse properties gives me NO option to turn it off, I'm pretty sure that the last time this happened a Dell technician downloaded a different driver and it sets like that, but I don't remember for sure.  I went to Dells driver support and let Dells Diagnostic scan my computer and tell me what I need drivers.  I down load them and installed what he said and it came that I already had newer drivers than those it says to download, I just download them anyway to make sure and NOT luck.

    Is there maybe another driver I'm missing, or could I do something out of order, when I installed the new hard drive and loaded my system from the last hard disk image? Everything went very well, I thought, I have NO problem with my mouse external, other that I can not disable the touchpad or the touchpad and it makes me crazy lol. I sincerely appreciated any ideas or help with this.

    Thank you in advance!

    I GOT MY ANSWER!

    I found my driver and Utilities disc provided with my computer and found the touchpad on the disk driver and installed it on my computer and after restarting, I went to my mouse and presto, now I have the RIGHT driver, so I'm HAPPY to REPORT that THIS has been RESOLVED!

    Thank you and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

  • Disable the touchpad on laptop Dell Inspiron 1501 with Vista

    I have checked the BIOS and can not see anyway to disable the touchpad from this location. When you use XP, I was able to disable the touchpad easily, but have not been able to do it under Vista. I was on the Dell site to see if it is a question of laptop. I have not received response to date. Please help I don't like the concept of the touchpad. I much prefer a mouse and do not use one.

  • How to DISABLE the touchpad on my laptop to use a mouse instead

    I had to reformat my computer Dell Inspiron 1545 (64-bit) and installed Microsoft Office 2010. I have a serious problem when you type in will I suddenly find I type in a place far behind the cursor. I thought that this is because I use a standard mouse operated by hand and not the touchpad in the laptop itself. I am told the only way to solve this problem is to turn off or disable the touchpad when mouse is used.

    All efforts to find the way to do this have failed. Can you please specify? Dell has become so elusive and inexplicable, it seems totally oblivious to the real problems associated with this product - a classic case of supplier having lost interest in his clients. All THREE so-called solution have no effect on my keyboard. To the right of F12 key ejects the CD. F3 provides details on the battery and Fn + F1 does nothing - in other words there is no change at all.
    I don't think that Dell or Microsoft has an idea of what the problems--and care even less!

  • Disable the touchpad with mouse connected in Windows 7

    I have a Dell Inspiron 1420.  Recently walking from Vista to Windows 7.  In Vista, I had the Mouse/touchpad settings set to disable the touchpad when a USB mouse is connected.  Cannot find the menu/right screen now put back in Windows 7.  Cannot not even find any indication of a touchpad or software for this anywhere in the menus of the program or the material.  Don't want to permanently disable the touchpad, just at the moment where a mouse is connected. Looking for step by step instructions, please!

    Contact Dell and ask where you can get Windows 7 software support for the touchpad that is adapted to your laptop. Dell tells you, it is possible that software exist on the Synaptics or Alps support pages, but you need to know who of the touchpad is equipped...

  • How to disable the touchpad disabled?

    I just got this laptop and it's driving crazy me.

    I tap on the touchpad, and I touched the area where you can disable the touchpad about 1,000 times a day. No matter if I do what he says, I can't that faucet back on.

    I press the windows on my KB.  Type mouse into the search bar.  Tab and then arrow key over to reactivate and it's driving me crazy! I use this for business, but also personal use.

    I see you where you can disable the touchpad, I don't want that.  I want to disable the zone of the touchpad where you tap enable and disable.  It is a defect of design for me.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    Hello stillrivers,

    I see you are having a problem with the touchpad does not disable. Did you by chance a look at the post which explains how to disable the touchpad?

    If you do not have by chance I'll re-post the answer here:

    To do this...

    Go to the control panel.

    ·         Go to mouse properties windows and click on device settings

    ·         Highlight the Synaptic Touchpad and click settings

    ·         In the properties of Synaptic Touchpad Windows on the left and the Panel you will see Touchpad Disable Zone, click it.

    ·         Uncheck the box 'double-tap to activate or disable the Touchpad'

    ·         Click OK

    If this does not work by chance, let me know. Also, if you have any questions please ask me.

  • How to disable the touchpad on my Tecra M10 - 10H?

    I just want to know if it is possible to disable the touchpad and is so, how, please?

    What I tried (which did not work):

    1. by pressing Fn + F9.

    2. go to "Mouse properties" and looking for an option to disable the touchpad it.

    After reading your ad, I must say that we don't know anything about your laptop.
    What operating system do you use?
    FN keys work or not in general?
    Is the driver for the touchpad that is installed or not?

    In my opinion, you must visit the download page of Toshiba on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and install driver touchpad and additional package from Toshiba. After making this check please if FN + F9 works. If this isn't the case, you should be able to disable touchpad in the mouse properties. After installation of the Synaptics driver new additional tab will be added to the device settings, and you will find option toggle.

  • Tecra M9 Win7 x 64 driver required to disable the touchpad

    Hello

    I installed Windows 7 x 64 on my Toshiba Tecra and everything works great so far. But I have trouble with my touchpad.

    The touchpad works, the problem is, I want to put out of service. I only work with the stick and the touchpad causes an arrow of jumping mouse; with the tap function to click very often large sections of text are deleted.

    Under Vista 32, I was able to disable the touchpad. Und Win 7 that I miss this feature. I tried several things; e.g. installation of drivers more portable Toshiba or from synaptics page or, Alternatively, drivers for keyboards-Alps. But nothing works.

    The laptop is a Tecra M9 PTMB0E; the PCI ID of the touchpad is PNP0F13

    Thank you

    Hello

    The Alps Electric to another Toshiba laptop touchpad driver should work because the touchpad is the same.
    So Don t understand why you are not able to install the driver for the touchpad.

    Usually the touchpad can be disabled using FN + F9 function.
    To get the functionality of the FN button that you need to install VAP and Flash memory card Support utility. I chose two other series of satellites (L500) applications.

    Try this.

    When I try to disable the touchpad on my M115 and go to Device Manager and click on the mouse, a screen will appear that says: "cannot connect to the Points of Synaptics driver.

    What's going on and how do I disable the touchpad?

    Hello

    You do not need to disable the touchpad in Device Manager.
    Either you use the combination of keys FN Fn + F9 to turn off the touchpad or you will do this in Control Panel.

    You can find the option in the control panel-> mouse-> last tab (device settings)
    It you should check the options such as properties or settings I'm not quite sure how it would be called in your case m
