    The wireless touch control button on my M17x is driving me crazy, i mistakenly press it at the worst possible times (like when in the middle of a serious fight in an MMORPG.) Is there any way to disable it's functionality?

    You're obviously as clumsy as me with your fingers :)

    I uninstalled the control centre and the OSD during my crusade to optimize my computer for my use. Not 100% sure which of the two that did the work, but the touch button for wireless does no longer work (and I am happy about that).
