Hi Pranay, I presume you have Windows 7 installed on your machine?
I recently purchased a Dell XPS 15 machine with Windows 7. I am able to disable/enable the touchpad by pressing the key located right next to the function key 12 (F12) key. This is a toggle option, and Jaws announces whether the touchpad is enabled or disabled every time you press the key. Not sure whether this will work for you, but worth a try.

Is there a short cut key to disable the touch pad? if not, where in windows can I do so? While typing, a slightest touch of my lower palm on the touch pad clicks the mouse and my PC cursor is relocated. This keeps happening and I have to bring the cursor back to its original position. Disabling the HID compliant mouse in the Mouse section of control panel didn't help, the touch pad was still working. Any ideas? thanks and regards, Pranay Gadodia | Programme Manager Project Eyeway - A knowledge resource for living a fuller life with vision loss C/o Score Foundation, 17/107, Basement, Vikram Vihar, Lajpatnagar 4, New Delhi 110024, INDIA.
