Hi ExxonWerner and welcome to the forum.

I’m not certain whether this option is available for your model but try Start > All Programs > Sony Notebook Control (or similar) > Touchpad tab > Disable touchpad.

Hi Werner,

Welcome to Club Vaio,

If you type C:\Program Files\Sony\Setting Utility Series\VCCPointingDevice.exe in to Start > Run, it may allow you to either enable or disable your touchpad..

Thanks!

But i search something that disables the TB not for ever only when I use the USB mouse.
Or freeze the Mouse when i type for some milliseconds!

Do the instructions I posted allow you to disable the mouse if so, if you repeat the process you can simply re-enable your mouse again when required..

Have a look at Touch Sensitivity options on the ‘Motion tab’ of Mouse Properties – once again assuming that this option is available on your model…

Hi ExxonWerner,

It may make the process simpler if you place a shortcut to VCCPointingDevice.exe onto your desktop..

I have included a guide on the process should you wish to create a shortcut..

1. Right-click an open area on the desktop, point to New, and then click Shortcut.

2. Click Browse.

3. Goto C:\Program Files\Sony\Setting Utility Series and then select VCCPointingDevice.exe from the list of files, then click OK and then click Next.

4. Rename the shortcut to something more use friendly and click Finish.
