Hi, There is sometimes a function that will do this, for example, f6 on my Packard-Bell. If someone is able to help you, you may be able to tell by the symbols on the function key strip. You could also Google the model number and see if there is anything available there. Failing this, you could disable the touchpad in the device manager.

Is there perhaps a way of disabling the touch pad on a modern laptop?
