    Many laptops have this as an option in the BIOS, where you can choose between PS2/USB or touchpad or both.

    Just plug the mouse in, it works fine on mine. The touch pad will still work too though.

    yes they both work, but I want to turn touch pad off as its a real pain when typing and prefer the mouse. I did this when I got the lap top but can't remember for the life of me how I did it and I took the laptop back to factory settings at the weekend, I think you have to download a driver to do it but don't know which one or where to get it.
    Thanks for the replies.
