In the bottom-center of your HP laptop is what is called a 'touchpad.' The touchpad works similarly to a mouse, except you drag your finger across the pad, instead of physically moving a mouse. If you have ever been typing and your cursor moved to an entirely different area of the screen, then the touchpad may be the culprit. All it takes is a quick brush of your palm to accidentally click your mouse somewhere on the screen, which moves you cursor there. However, to prevent this, HP has integrated an easy-off method to disable the touchpad. To disable the touchpad permanently, you can uninstall the drivers for it through 'Device Manager.' Like other software, when you uninstall drivers, it ceases to function. Since the drivers allow the touchpad to interact with the operating system, the touchpad will be disabled completely once the drivers are uninstalled. Click 'Start,' type 'Device Manager' (without quotes) in the search bar and press 'Enter.' Click the arrow next to 'Mice and other pointing devices.' Right-click on the touchpad listing and click 'Uninstall.'
