Windows 10: No Mouse or Touchpad W10 Lenovo Install

Hello All,
I have run into a problem installing W10 Home on a Lenovo G50-30 [has upgraded RAM and new SSD] to totally replace an existing Ubuntu 18.04 OS.
I created the W10 USB install media on another laptop using the Media Creation Tool - all went as expected.
Unfortunately when I boot with the USB I see the first W10 install screen [keyboard etc] but am unable to get beyond that as there is no laptop keypad or a USB mouse functionality.
I am a little uncertain as to the correct BIOS settings which may be the problem - currently set to USB : Legacy enabled, SATA AHCI : enabled, Boot Mode : Legacy Support, and Boot Priority : Legacy First.
Should I be setting fast boot and/or UEFI ?
Or what ?
Thanks,

:)

 

Touchpad won't disable on Lenovo T430

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand the issue that you are currently facing, we will try the best we can to resolve your issue.

I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps:

• Go to Mouse Properties via Control Panel.
• Touchpad, from where you can simply turn off the touchpad and save.
• If you do not see this option in the Mouse Properties menu, it could only mean that you do not have the touchpad driver installed on your laptop.

Download and install the latest drivers from the manufacturer’s website and check if you can disable.

Hope the information helps. Please let us know if the issue persist and we will be happy to assist you further.

 

I want to disable touchpad on Dell laptop


Hello everyone,
My laptop's touchpad works and I don't want it to, because I prefer a mouse. It's a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series on windows 10 OS.

What I have tried that hasn't worked:

• start<settings<devices<mouse & touchpad<additional mouse options. This opens a window called Mouse Options which has 5 tabs up top, none of which involve the touchpad. The Hardware tab shows 2 devices: the mouse itself, and the USB. No touchpad there.
• windows key+x<mobility center. No touchpad to be found.
• various function keys. No options for touchpad on/off.
• device manager<mice and other pointing devices. Again, only the mouse and usb show up. It appears the touchpad is working without a driver, which is a little spooky.

Any other suggestions? I could try downloading a third party driver, but that seems like a step in the wrong direction.
Thanks
