How to change the default setting for the touch-pad?

I have a HP Pavilion dv7 running Windows 7 Home Premium.

I use it 99% of the time on your desktop, using a mouse instead of the key.

Sometimes I forget to turn off the key by using the small dot in the upper left corner, which causes the movement of the cursor unexpectedly.

Question: Is there a way to reset the value by default for the touch-pad to be inactive, and use the small point to activate the key only if I use the computer in a remote location?

Thanks for any help on this.

Hi Larry,

See if you have the following option.

Open windows control panel, open the mouse, click the device settings tab and then click on the button "settings".  Click on the + next to the Touchpad disable Zone, and then click top left Action.  Click on the radio button for TouchPad Switch Off, click on apply and then click Ok.  Click apply and then click OK in the remaining window.

This should enable the TouchPad on/off function to remember, so if you turn it off, it will be turned off after a reboot.

Kind regards
