Hello slangax,

In your manual, there are instructions to turn off the touchpad on the pad itself.

Is this working for you?

Turn the TouchPad on or off by double tapping in the upper-left corner of the TouchPad. Double tap to turn the TouchPad on, repeat to turn the TouchPad off.

Thanks for your advice. But im tried its not working. Maybe i couldn't find the right spot or it does really not working. I am installing the newest touchpad driver now. I'll say you the results..

Update: When trying to install new device driver, i found that in this forum, and that solves my problem. 

I don't have to mess with turning on/off touchpad no longer, it is automatically disabled when I plug in another USB mouse device 🙂 Thanks for your time 🙂
