I'm having this Sony VAIO VGN-N365E preinstalled with Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium. I was facing some issues with the operating system so I restored it completely to the original factory settings. The restoration was successfully done, but after sometime I was getting this touchpad problem. The problems were that the touchpad was jumpy it use to tap and click by itself. I’ve tried a few things like I reinstalled the drivers; even I updated the drivers; I also uninstalled the drivers and windows installed windows installed its default drivers but nothing worked. Now I'm thinking that its hardware problem may be the touchpad has become faulty. And after disabling it I can use an external mouse which would be easier and also a permanent solution for this problem. But when I go to the Control Panel and located the mouse, the button to disable the Alps touchpad is grayed out –and I’m not able to click it but though I’m able to enable or disable the external USB mouse. Now my question here is how to disable the touchpad so that I can only use my external USB mouse? Please help me with this issue.
