Hey All,
This one should be fun! I have a Dell Inspirion XPS L702X. Nice machine, but, it has a known glitch that is driving me NUTS! The touch pad drivers are REALLY glitchy. While you are typing the cursor moves to where ever the mouse is located on the page. If you disable it, it turns itself back on. If you uninstall it, it reinstalls on every reboot. I have installed a wireless, which works great, but the touchpad still overrides it, and they work at the same time. This is ridiculous.
I once found instructions for how to completely remove the functionality of the touchpad. I had to reinstall it, long boring story
, and now want to remove it again, but I can't find the instructions. Please, do not tell me to install the repair software from Dell, (doesn't work), or to Uninstall using the Mouse section in Control Panel. (Also doesn't work
)
So, I need some help permanently removing functionality on the touchpad without disabling the keyboard, and without Windows reinstalling the drivers from the backup. In other words, if I ever want this thing to work, I would have to purposefully go out and get the drivers and install them. Thanks ahead of time for your help. Looking forward to your reply.
TTFN,
LGW
