How to disable the TOUCH PAD

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

    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.

    Have you found a way to do it?
    I think that it of not possible to disable the touch screen.
    Found no information in the user manual. Maybe you can check the BIOS settings available. Switch on and press F2 to enter the BIOS.
    But to be honest, I doubt that a power option would be available there.

  • How to disable the mouse pad scroll feature?

    A crossed the features Control Panel and I am unable to turn off this feature

    Most of the keys are now equipped with software designed to have the side right of the touch pad scroll top and bottom of the page and the left to zoom in and out of the page.
    In most cases, if you click Start > Control Panel > mouse, there should be a tab of brand such as Dell Touchpad. In addition, you can find a touchpad icon in the taskbar (next to the clock in the lower right corner of the screen). Right click and open this icon should help you in the right direction.
    The process to change these settings varies depending on the laptop and may require a phone call to the manufacturer for assistance.
    I hope this helps!

  • 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. ;)
    Good bye
