When I take my mouse my touchpad wireless is disabled
When I take my mouse wireless by my Touchpad USB port is disabled. I went into the control panel and don't see anything that will change the mode of operation when I unplug the wireless mouse?
Hi wyatt1065,
1 when was the last time it was working fine?
2. did you of recent changes on the computer?
3. What is the number of brand and model of the laptop?
I suggest that you install the updated drivers for touchpad from the laptop manufacturer's website and check if it helps.
Updated a hardware driver that is not working properly
If the previous step fails, then I suggest that you connect a wired mouse to the laptop and check if the problem persists.
I hope this helps!

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.

Satellite Pro A300 - the cursor moves continuously when connected an external mouse
Hello
I have a Satellite Pro A300. When I connect a mouse directly by USB the cursor moves constantly. I also have a mouse attached via a docking station, Toshiba and that works perfectly.
It doesn't matter what USB port I use or if the laptop is connected to the docking station or not, or if it works on AC or on battery power.
I thought it was the mouse that was the problem, so I went and bought a new one but the problem persists.
Actually, while I wrote this post, he has stopped doing that and then started! Very frustrating.
Can anyone help?
Thank you

Program accelerates when you move the mouse
I use a simple few stripcharts program and have put a clock on the screen to measure the milliseconds per program cycle. I noticed that when I move the mouse, it takes about 33mS to perform the loop, but when I move the mouse, it goes down to 8mS. The stripcharts to accelerate as well. I really need the program to run at the fastest speed to get a decent amount of data to display (Nyquist rate issues). Has anyone seen this kind of problem before?
In addition, there is a better way to send data to 5 stripcharts using PlotStripChartPoint 5 times?
I'm under V8.0 on a PC104, 1.4 GHz Pentium M, Windows XP.
Thanks for all your help over the 6 months.
Thank you very much for your help.
I tried the multithreading and the solution of PlotStripChart and the two a little help, I still had my main problem, lack of pics. I was not so concerned with the display of all data in time real, just need something for the user to see what was going on. The final solution, that I came was to use PlotStripChart and SetSleepPolicy the VAL_SLEEP_NONE value. This has increased my program for even faster speed that when I moved the mouse.
I realize that Windows is not a RTOS, but this request didn't really need that go well. Most of the data I am looking for is about 1 to 20 Hz, and this easily enough.
Once again, thank you.

How can I disable the mouse pad when you use a mouse plug-and-play?
How can I disable the mouse pad when you use a mouse plug-and-play? I tried to disable the driver, and nothing works.
Hello
Check with support of the manufacturer system, documentation online or forums that there is probably
Shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.Parameters for TouchPad located in the control panel - mouse (there may be several tabs with TouchPad entered)
and some come with a utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock in the bottom right.==========================================
If necessary: (make sure that you have restarted at least once, if the above did not work)
Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touchpad - the driver tab-
Click on update driver (it comes may not do anything like MS is far behind the drivers of certification), now right CLICK
on the TouchPad and UNINSTALL.Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in). RESET
This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad from working.
The similar procedure on XP, Windows 7 and Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific device if present.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575Then go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest touchpad drivers.
Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.
I hope this helps.

VIsta - Local access only
HI -.
I recently moved. I use the same router from my old apartment and I had no problem connection in the past. Since I moved I have a new Time Warner modem (Cisco) and the modem works fine.The router also works very well I'm able to connect with my iPhone and IPad without any problem.
But when I try to connect with my wireless laptop, it will only connect to Local access. If I connect the laptop to the router with the ethernet cable, it works very well.
It's a Dell Studio 15 with Vista.
The computer is able to connect to wifi to other places without any problem, but for some reason that I can't connect home. I tried to reset the modem and the router several times, but that did not help. I tried the option repair & diagnose several times but it doesn't work.
I tried to look for other solutions online and tried to disable IPv6, and while it helped some and I was able to connect wireless, the computer ran so slowly that it didn't seem like a good solution.
This has been very frustrating. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.
StaciHello Staciusa,
Have you tried to change the wireless channel that your router is running at? There may be interference that could prevent the internet connection:
Take a look at step 6 in this article that give more details about it:
http://www.Microsoft.com/athome/Setup/wirelesstips.aspx
If you need assistance to change the settings of the specific router, you will need to contact your router manufacturer or your internet service provider.

Thus, this white popup bar and mode full screen with the white bar without tabs firefox has pretty much ruined it for me. in any case to fix it would be great.

tabs are at the top of the screen, as well as the toolbar. Sometimes, when I move the mouse to the top, the tabs and toolbar reappear, but sometimes it gets stuck and I'm stuck without the toolbar. I can only navigate from the page I'm. I'm not the most knowledgeable computer, but I'm good following the directions! so if you can ask me how to adjust the settings for the tabs and the toolbar stay permanently at the top of the screen, I would really appreciate thank you.
