How do I disable Touchpad in windows 7

[mwdorman]

The touchpad got turned on again somehow and I can't find how to turn it off. My hand brushes it and moves the mouse so I start typing in the wrong place because I don't notice the cursor has moved. I used a wireless mouse.

Check in the BIOS, also maybe a hotkey on the keyboard, a place on the touchpad you can tap to turn it off, or in Windows mouse options.
