Hi Douglas, Please remind me what make and model of laptop you have. (I may be able to look at the actual User manual) It is highly possible that the Touch Pad control is actually in Control Panel, but is listed under a different topic than simply "Mouse".

Presumably we are talking about the item in Control Panel labelled "Mouse Hardware and Sound". I seem to have only five Property Sheets, Buttons, Pointers, Pointer Options, Hardware, and Advanced, after which I return to Buttons. Shift, Control and Tab takes me to the Advanced sheet. Which sheet should contain the "use Touch Pad etc. item? By the way this is the Business edition of Vista - I believe that I have read that the five editions differe significantly in their Control Panels. Any further comments would be most welcome - I hope that I am not missing something obvious, Douglas On 27 Nov 2007 at 18:27, Chris Hallsworth wrote: > Ok Doug.
