XPS means nothing it has full model number,
if you answer XPS at dell.com you get 24,000 hits, see why?
no model stated.
ask here
http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/products/laptop/xps_laptop
its a laptop. with no OS stated, why post lacking what OS is there?
use a real USB mouse click control panel click system icon behold the OS is stated there.
we can not guess what you click, it needs to be stated
on my Laptop I use a REAL mouse, do you?
if the mouse pad below the space bar is used, is it.t
that is touch track pad,
if the keys fail, reload the dell drivers. for the pad.
when this happens someone installed the wrong OS
or installed the wrong drivers for the wrong OS.
did you do that?
Id say the driver is wrong, but we can not help lacking
1: no PS stated, full model.
2: No OS stated, windows what?
3: did you upgrade the PC OS at anytime or play with drivers?

Hi -
I've been having the same problem and it is MAJORLY annoying to be typing along, and have the cursor reappear on another line!
I had a heck of a time finding the place to disable the touchpad, since we use a USB mouse with the laptop. Turns out, someone else helped me find a simple way - hold down the Fn key (next to the left side CNTRL key), and hit F7. That toggles the touchpad off/on easily!
Also suggested by someone else, some mice can cause erratice behavior with Acer laptops, so perhaps try another mouse?
So far, I've been typing this response AFTER disabling the touchpad, and the cursor has not jumped around at all.
Good luck! : )

I used to get this problem. It is VERY annoying as you must know. try pushing the windows icon button in the top right corner of your keyboard(thats where it is on my keyboard)then use your arrow keys to scroll up to control panel, select mouse by using arrow keys and then use the tab and arrow keys to open the mouse keypad pagetab and push enable and enter key to turn it on.
IF WHEN YOU DO THAT AND your in the touchpad properties but there is no 'enable' and it says no hardware detected, then go into the same mouse window from the control panel and go to the hardware tab and either try to update driver or use the trouble shoot button.
Hope this helped =]
SOURCE: I have a Dell XPS M1710 laptop. The touch pad does not work.
Unless it is a hardware fault open the control panel>system>mice and uninstall the touchpad. Then rebott. It should solve the problem.

go to control panel then mouse properties you will see the buttons the left & right then click the task that you want to do.

Hi David,
Try hooking up a USB mouse and you'll have control once again. Sounds like you can fix the issue from there ;)
