Keyboards & Touchpads

[JoeMx]

Hi,

How can I disable the touchpad but not the accupoint on Tecra A11?

Thanks by your help.

Best regards

Joe

What's the full model number? "A11" is only partial. There should be a sticker on the bottom.

Peter,

The model is A11-SP5011M

Hope that you can help me

Thanks

Joe

Toggling the touchpad by holding FN and pressing F9 shouldn't do anything to the pointer.

Peter,

Fn+F9 disables both of them, touchpad and accupoint.

Joe, I notice your ALPS driver is for both Windows 7 and XP. Possibly, this still applies.

Jerry,

It works. A few differences because Windows 7.

-Mouse properties

  - expansion tab

       -configure expansion function

             -select device

                      -clear the touchpad box

Thanks by your help

You're welcome, Joe. Thanks for the feedback.

Sorry about the misinformation, but I'm glad Jerry got it working for you. On the Protege I'm using here, Fn+F9 disables only the touchpad.

Oh God, you just saved my life!  Truly, the touchpad was really driving me nuts.  The fn+F9 solution worked for me.  It helped to know that I could use it to toggle the touchpad off and on in case I didn't have my mouse with me and needed to use it temporarily.
