How do I turn off the touchpad?
When I type on my laptop, my palms are generally resting on the touchpad and quite often, I end up moving the pointer and end up setting the cursor in a different location. If I'm not touch typing at the time, I won't notice for about a paragraph or so. I can get around this by elevating my hands somewhat when I type, but that starts to cramp my hands and wrists. I looked in the documentation that came with the computer and in the control panel options, but couldn't seem to find a way to do it. Could someone tell me how plz? I'm running Vista Home Premium on a Dell Inspiron 1721, if that helps.
