    I had a driver for windows 7 before that would disable the touchpad when I plugged in a mouse. I reformatted my computer since then and haven't been able to find a driver that does that again. The gateway one wont install because it says it's not made for my operating system.

    The newest driver from the synaptics site doesn't seem to offer the feature to auto disable when a mouse is plugged in.

    Anyone know where I can find this driver? Thanks in advance!
