Permanently disable touchpad on EliteBook 2560p

Hello

I have a HP EliteBook 2560p w / 8gig of RAM, Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I don't know the latest version of the BIOS.

On this model, I can (DIS-) activate the touchpad and the buttons of the mouse associated under the touchpad by double tapping a small dot at the top left of the touchpad (http://computershopper.com/var/ezwebin_site/storage/images/media/images/hp-elitebook-2560p-touchpad/...)

Stupidly, it's still where I usually rest my left thumb (right underneath the upper left click of mouse buttons).

When I double click the left button of the mouse, the trackpad (dice) - active.

I want to know is how can I PERMANENTLY disable the touchpad (without opening the envelope and disconnection of the cable)?

Thank you in advance!

You should definitely be able to disable the touchpad in the settings. Try following these steps to see if you can find the option "Disable the TouchPad" in the settings.

Control Panel > display icon > mice > TouchPad settings >

(repeat) TouchPad settings (button) > click tapping >

CHECK the "Double Tap to activate / disable the TouchPad.

CHECK "Switch TouchPad" for a session

This should disable your touchpad. Let me know if this does not work.

Thank you
Sean

  • Portege R830 - cannot disable touchpad

    Hello, strange question. But can not turn off the touchpad on a Portégé R830 (Windows 7 32 bit). I've seen this problem on two of the machines I have. This has never been a problem for the models Tecra I got, M5, M9, M10, M11, etc. R840.

    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!

  • AHCI for Windows professional XP on Elitebook 2560p drivers

    Due to a specific part of the software, I'm trying to install Windows XP on an EliteBook 2560p with drivers for the SATA AHCI controller.  Where can I get these drivers, and what is the best way to install?  I guess that since the laptop doesn't have a floppy drive I need to incorporate them into my XP CD?  What is the specific chipset driver? -from what I've seen on the page from Intel, there are a bunch of different options; ICH10d, ICH10R, ICH7M, etc, etc.

    Thanks in advance.

    TSK, tsk.  You must have obtained the name of the first ACHI SATA controller.

    This is the reason why we should always have a USB FDD in their Toolkit.

    Ok. I'll take a guess and say that you have the Intel (r) Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller.

    Now that you have already installed XP, first install the chipset driver and restart.

    Download the second listed file and then extract these drivers to a folder that you put somewhere on your drive C:\ so that you can navigate him later.

    Follow this procedure to install the AHCI with XP driver:

    1. right click on the icon my computer, click on manage, select Device Manager

    2. click on the + sign next to IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, it would show the devices under this category.

    3. you will find the listed Intel SATA AHCI storage controller.

    14. the update driver warning will be displayed. Click Yes

    15. the driver will be installed, and as soon as the update Hardware Wizard appears. Click on finish

  • 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.

  • Option in the BIOS to "permanently disable" Computrace

    Hello

    In the configuration of the BIOS T500 is the option:

    Security: Computrace: Computrace Module Activation

    with 3 possible values:

    • Enabled (default)?
    • People with disabilities
    • Permanent disability

    I think I understand how Computrace BIOS works: at startup, the BIOS checks and ensures that the necessary drivers/services are present in the operating system file system before the OS supported boots. The Computrace service then runs 'hidden' in the OS and, periodically, telephone reception.

    I want to know is what happens if I select the BIOS option "permanent disability". The auditor of Computrace/charger is removed from the BIOS? Is it possible to never turn Computrace at a later date, perhaps by flashing the BIOS?

    Thank you

    Frank

  • How can I permanently disable and remove the User Account Control (UAC) on Control Panel?

    This feature on Windows Vista is really annoying when you do a presentation. I want to permanently disable and remove from the control panel.

    Hi Eyngel,

    If I understand you correctly, you want to disable or delete the user (UAC) of your computer access control.

    You can turn off the UAC, but do not remove it completely from your computer.

    You can let on that it is one of the security features of Windows Vista.

    To turn off the UAC:

    Go to control panel > user accounts > manage another account > at bottom of the page delete the control on the use of user access control.
    It should ask you to restart the computer to complete the process.

    I hope this helps. ----------------------------------------------------------
