Disable touchpad 'click '.

I feel that I've been all over the internet. I want to just disable the click on my touchpad. I have a gateway _ and vista. Please help me, it drives me crazy!

Hi FrostChilde,

Please use the forum for answers,

You want to disable completely the touchpad or just the sound of the click?
If you want to disable it completely, go to Device Manager > locate the keyboard in the list > right click and select disable device.
If you want to enable the clicking sound, check in Control Panel > mouse and its option to see if there is one for Gateway touchpad.  Each computer may have a different expectation to put sound effect.

    I have the latest driver installed Alps, from Toshiba.co.uk. I tried the button on the touchpad, it does not work. The device of the Alps can be disabled in the Device Manager. I tried the Toucpad of the State system, Advanced tab, toolbar properties Advanced settings. It doesn't have a single parameter «Disable touchpad» There is no option to disable the touchpad when you use a USB mouse - however, this does not work.

    Can anyone help with this? The only other option I can think of is the BIOS, but it would be inappropriate to my users, who may want to turn it back on it at a certain point during execution of Windows.

    Hi liamw,

    You can disable the touchpad if you press the FN + F9 key combination. The touchpad will be disabled until you press this combination of keys again, but a mouse external isn t touched. That means you can still use a same USB touchpad mouse is disabled with FN + F9 key combination.

    Check this box!

  • Disable touchpad HP Envy 17

    I have exactly the same problem you have posted... Do you have a solution?  There is no 'mouse' or "Point Touch Control Pad" with a disable to kill the touchpad.  I am thinking to resort to disassemble the laptop and unplug the cable that plugs into the touchpad itself.  I also deleted the synaptic touch pad (Windows 7) device driver and did not help.

    I'm pretty sure that remove the cable from the touch pad will fix the problem, but it is a fairly long process... 20 with respect to and then if I still wanted to sell the laptop, I would probably have to plug the cable back in again for someone else.

    Please help, Dave

    I've done what I suggested above to remove the flat cable for the touchpad disable touchpad and it worked very well.   I removed the two ends and folded cable where HP had folded it and scotch taped it to the system board next to the connector where it plugs IO on the system board so that someone will be able to put it back in if I never sold it.  On the plug, it has a little fitting valve rubber to flip upward to allow you to remove the cable at both ends.  I don't have any errors saying that it was not connected.  After the cable has been removed it simply does not work which is exactly what I wanted.    Problem solved.

  • Cannot disable Touchpad on Windows 7.

    I am running Windows 7 and I want to disable the touchpad. When I try to disable it in Device Manager, the option 'Disable' is not clickable. When I try 'Delete' option, it says I have to restart my computer to apply the changes, but after that I restarted my computer, the Touchpad is still active.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I got an even hard to disable touchpad, and I had the problem in this way. If possible, connect an external mouse into a USB port, then open the Touchpad control properties tab and look for a framework written something like this: disable the Touchpad when an external mouse is detected.

    Go back to Device Manager, and then try to disable the Touchpad. As an external mouse is already connected so I have a registered pointing device, Windows would let me disable the Touchpad without reinstalling on the next reboot.

    Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

    Kind regards
