    I reinstalled my OS recently and ever since I did I cannot for the life of me get the setting to automatically disable the touchpad when an external mouse is plugged in.

    I used to follow the advice in post #9 from this thread:
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/sager-clevo/449196-np8662-auto-deactivate-touchpad.html

    But that no longer works. Any ideas? I know this MUST be possible...
    I use the standard stock Sager touchpad drivers.

    Try popping the latest ones from the touchpad manufacturer on there :)
