Windows 10: Pro4 TouchPad and mouse

Pro4 TouchPad with Windows10 does not work. Tried to load most recent driver. It will not load. Added external mouse but mouse pointer continuously blinks. Tried settings to eliminate blinking. It did not work. I am unable to successfully load the necessary driver. Tried many times and powered it on and of several times. I also tried to load earlier driver with no success. Is it the motherboard?

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
