USB mouse

Archived from groups: comp.sys.laptops (More info?)

I use a USB mouse on my notebook pc that has a touch pad in the office. On
travelling, I use touch pad instead. I found the mouse is not working
smoothly and have heard that it is due to the mouse and the touch pad
activate at the same time. Can someone advise me how to disable the touch
pad when not in use.

Thanks,

Ray

Don,

Thanks for your experience shared. Do both built-in touch pad and usb mouse
co-exist on the same pc without any interference or just replace the
built-in one?

Ray,
They are compatible, without any difficulties. If I use the mouse, no
problem and if, while the mouse transceiver is plugged in, use the touch pad
no problem. I can't say this would be the case with all laptops but with my
Dell Inspiron 700m it is smooth sailing.

My touchpad and wireless Logitech USB mouse work together on my Acer, too.

You should have access to the touchpad utility, in a fashion similar to
accessing preferences for your mouse. I have a small icon in my system tray
for the touchpad. A right click brings up the options for the touchpad. My
moue is accessible through Control Panel.
