Re: Dell Vostro 1500 touch pad

I found this on another forum and I assume CP means Control Panel:
**in CP -> mouse but not at all obvious. When you go to CP -> mouse and select anything to do with the touchpad it opens a stupid third party (dell) menu that is very confusing and has too many options spread across way too many tabs. I spent ages this morning looking through all the different menus and finally stumbled across a check box to disable touchpad when an external mouse is plugged in.**
I also read there "might" be a "f" key that disables it.
