Can you disable the touchpad function on the keyboard and use a separate mouse instead?

Yes , I use a mouse instead of the keyboard just like a PC or Laptop. Just plug and play !!!

You can use a separate mouse one way or another. Doesn't matter if the Trackpad is disabled or not. However, if you do want to disable the Trackpad, just do the following: Go to "Devices and Printers" Select the keyboard cover device Select the Trackpad driver settings Click "Change settings" Disable the Trackpad driver.

No. I usually use an external keyboard and mouse anyway. I like the larger spaced out keys.

I don't think you would need a mouse. My son is using his keyboard with a touch screen tablet.

I do not own it but am I am researching this keyboard also. According to the manual at Adesso's web site, the touchpad does have a tap to click feature. I'm not sure if the feature can be turned off.

Yes. They don't not interfere with one another, if you use them separately. I use the touchpad and a wireless mouse.

Hold the "function" key then press F7. This will toggle the mouse pad off and on

You are probably brushing the touchpad. You might be able to find a setting to disable the touchpad while you are typing. Personally, I always use a mouse and disable the touchpad (mainly because of this problem)

Yes, a couple of ways. One of the function keys (the best way to turn on and off while typing as needed) or, if you want it off permanently, it can be disabled in the DEVICE MANAGER or in the CONTROL PANEL under the MOUSE / POINTER Icon.

Sorry can't help but you should call ASUS and they should be able to let you know how to disable to touchpad.

Yes you can actually first you need to get a usb hub or splitter and plug it into the mouse port. then you have to turn off mouse emulation. the manual should tell you how. then just plug mouse and keyboard into the splitter/hub and you should be ready to go

On Windows install the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center. You can disabled tap to click there.

Depending on your settings you can clck and hold the left mouse button OR you can double tap and hold & drag with the toutch pad but the question really has nothing to do with the keyboard and more to do with the Operating System settings. But yes it supports 2 finger scrolling and all that Jazz

Yes, by depressing the tab on the front of the keyboard tray on whichever side of the tray the mouse is on and sliding the mouse pad out.

Yes, we had a problem with the touchpad being pressed while using the keyboard and USB mouse. Fortunately, there is a setting that automatically disables the touchpad whenever a USB mouse is plugged in. Also, we had to disable the Win 8 gestures on the touch pad, because it kept doing weird things like pulling up the Windows 8 sidebar (which we never use).

Correct. You can't map software on the mouses keys and launch said software with said keys. The strike7 keyboard can that

It's not the touchpad - it's your thumb. I had the same problem until I realized that I was letting my thumbs drop when typing. The cursor jumps to where the mouse pointer is when you're typing. Like most of my problems - it's between the keyboard and the chair.
