How to disable Dell touchpad?

There is a utility that should produce an icon in the system tray to set the function of the touchpad, but if you don't see it there, you can find it here:

C:\Program Files\DellTPad\DellTPad.exe

This will allow you to disable either the pointing stick or the touchpad and their associated buttons. They function independently so you can have the pointing stick active and use the touchpad buttons if you desire.
If you don't find this utility, you may need to download it from the Dell support site.
