hello; I should also point out, the ability to change the mousepad behavior within the windows mobility center is not true of all models.

And I think function F3 might turn off the wireless. I do use function F11 to lower volume and function F12 to raise volume. Otherwise I feel safer using the Windows Mobility Center that I mentioned in my last reply. Just a thought.

I don't even have to touch the thing for it to make the cursor jump away from the application I'm working in. I've tried Device Manager and there was no disable button or else JAWS couldn't read it. Thanks for any help.
