Hi,

Uninstall your current driver for Synaptics touchpad and restart system.

 

Resource:
Uninstalling Software in Windows 7

Uninstall or change a program in Windows 7

 

Download and install this driver and restart system.

Click ' Start ' Start.png button. In search box write ' mouse ' and choose ' Mouse ' from the list.

Select ' Device Settings ' tab and check ' Disable pointing device when external USB pointing device is attached ', then ' Apply ' and ' Ok '.

 

I'm sure you'll love the way it will work for you now.
