Touchpad

I have an IBM T41, using XP. I have a tendency to strike the touchpad while I type in Word and I delete pertinent data. I am now using a mouse, but I need to know how to disable the touchpad. Help!

Re: Touchpad

Hi, Preachers
I tried to look up the specifics on you touchpad, but it is hard to find the owners manul for your model. If you can supply me with the model # or service tag # it may help. Usually there are Fn keys to control the touchpad. Look at the F1-F12 in blue you may see touchpad keys. The other option you may have is going to control panel>mouse and see if there is an option to turn off the touchpad.
Let me know.
Thanks,
Bill
