Optical mouse problems

Options
Hi

I have just bought a Technika wmse05 wireless optical mouse from Tescos.

I have followed all of the instructions except where it says that i have to disable any other mouse on my computer, the only problem is that i have a laptop and my mouse is the touch pad on the front of it and i am worried that if i disable the touch pad and the mouse does not work i am screwed as i wont be able to operate my laptop.

Any help or reassurance would be appreciated.

Many thanks

Slade

    Just leave the TouchPad on, I use a Logitech Laser Mouse which works fine with the touchpad enabled.

    Try disabling it to see if it makes a difference.

    You can use your Keyboard to access and move around using your arrow keys and windows key which is by the ALT key.

    and use enter as normal.
