Open your motherboard's BIOS and look for options
to enable or disable the touchpad.

Hello,
I have an new Acer Laptop with Vista Home premium. It has an ALPS
touchpad. I want to disable the touchpad (and enable it w/ USB mouse on
rare occasions where I might use the touchpad).

I went to the control panel and mouse properties and there is no way to
disable it there. I also went to the device driver area and the disable
device was greyed out.

How do I disable this touchpad?

Many thanks in advance!

Mike
