Hi
I am not sure why one would need to have a manual button to turn the
touch pad on and off but I would like more information on this. personally I
have thought of placing a card over the touch pad to block any accidental
activation. Any information on the manual button with HP would be
appreciated since I am looking in to buying an HP.
God bless,
Mark
God loves you!

>
> A friend of mine purchased an Asus laptop after finding HP bad because the
> lack of the On/Off button for the touch pad, which has been on earlier HP
> models. I told him that despite the possibility to turn the touch pad on
> and off from the control panel, the opportunity to do this from a physical
> button also is quite important particularly for a blind user like him and
> myself. So far so good, but the JAWS installation caused *serious*
> problems after restarting, or trying to restart the system: it caused a
> video intercept incompatibility message and a "blue screen" situation, and
> because of loss of any sighted assistance at the moment I worsened the
> situation by retrying to start the system over again. And now, very
> recently before the writing moment of that message, it became clear to me
> what caused the total crash of the system, which could probably have been

> As a "first aid" method I asked my friend to contact mr. Ville Lamminen,

> My question after the description above is simply: Should a compability
