I have a laptop of HP G42-475DX 62 bits. How can I deactivate my Touch Pad and just use the mouse? My problem is that while I'm typing touch pad cursor must jump into a paragraph & when I look up all of my text that I wrote is so a total mess, phrases running together etc. I would like to disable the Touch Pad.
Facilities to turn the TouchPad depends on whether the driver supports.
Go to the Control Panel, select mouse. If there is a device settings tab, you should be able to disable the TouchPad.
Or see page 24 of the manual http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02100456.pdf

my touch pad on my laptop does not move the pointer, but when I have my mouse wireless pluged in it will work I was told I could have disabled the touch pad which I have to do to activate it again?
Hi dove2k,
Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.
You will need to enable the touchpad on the laptop itself.
Find the area of the touch pad, you will find a button to enable or disable the touchpad.
If the step above doesn't, try this step.
Go to control panel > mouse > device settings tab
Click(or to disable) Notes:
On some models, there is a keyboard shortcut to enable or disable the touchpad. For example, ACER, just do Fn + F7.
You can click on Reset device if none of these solutions work.If you still can't touch pad to work, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer for more information.

How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another Viewer at all times?
How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use Adobe Reader to view the PDF files, without having to set this preference, whenever I open Firefox? The default setting to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)". Thank you.
It's strange. The integrated Viewer - Viewer by default - is described by the expression 'Preview in Firefox' and you will have changed to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)".
Well... you or an add-on or another program on your system must be changed.
What happens if you disable the Adobe Acrobat plugin (not the extension to create a PDF file, leave it active). Here's how you can try this:
Open the page modules using either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click on Plugins. On the right side, find "Adobe Acrobat" and change the permission 'never enable '.
Then in the Options page, Applications Panel, change your preference for "Portable Document Format (PDF)" to "Always ask" so you get the dialog box to download instead of the PDF, open in a tab.
It sticks?

But to be honest, I doubt that a power option would be available there. -

I managed to break the touch screen on a Toshiba LX830 - 11 d.
The machine runs Win8 and always works with a USB keyboard and a mouse, although he thinks there are plenty of touch of the finger around the damaged area.
Is it possible to disable the touch screen feature so that I can use it as a 'normal' PC or remove the screen touch himself leaving a simple LCD screen?
Thanks for any advice.

Hi leavercleaver
If you use preinstalled original Win7 check please if you can find this option in Toshiba Assist > Optimize > Toshiba hardware configuration > set button > function key.
As far as I know Toshiba hardware utility control BIOS configuration option so that you can also do is to enter the BIOS settings, check if this option is available it and disable it directly here.

How to disable the touch buttons on the Satellite P500?
I found the touch buttons on the side of the keyboard under the power button on my P500 of Satallite EXTREMELY BORING!
Does anyone know how to disable?See you soon
Extremely annoying?
What you do with your hands? I mean if you don't need them do not touch them. Satellite P500 is now in front of me and don't understand how it can be annoying.In any case if you do not use them, you must remove support button utility. It is part of the package of added value. I don't know if you can remove it as a simple but what you can do is to remove the VAP system. After restart install VAP again (to download from Toshiba support page) and choose custom installation. Before the button remove the check mark from the usefulness of support and continue the installation.
I imagine that these buttons will be dead and you will be happy. ;)

How to disable the additional noise filter when you use a Lifeproof subwoofer
I have a 6 s Iphone now with a case of Lifeproof! I was told there is an option of noise or a filter to turn off so that people
agree on cell?
Thank you
Gary
You have the Lifeproof who says that it is for the 6/6s on the box? Or do you have one that says just the iPhone 6? If you have one that was planned for the iPhone 6, it won't work properly as it covers some things, that he should not.
You can try to disable the noise suppression. Settings > general > accessibility > telephone noise cancelling.

Dear all,
I have a HP zbook studio G3 laptop. I want to go to the Nvidia graphics card permanently. I tried to disable graphics integrated in the Device Manager, uninstall the driver and allowing even the nvidea card chart of all profiles in the parameter 3D tap in the Nvidia configuration software. Non of them seems to work as the integrated graph is always in action and simple games could not be executed. I always keep in the option to high-performance mode, and the laptop is still connected. Should I manipulate the bios setup?
Thanks in advance,
Bezzi
I have the version non-studio of Zbook 15 G3 which has removable video card. I added the video card after purchase and found that it worked just right if I went into the BIOS and set it to use only the nVidia card. However, because yours is graphic switchable I don't know that you have this option. Have you looked at even the BIOS? Press ESC you turn on, then F10
