Medion touchpad problem

[Cockney Guy]

I prefer not to have the tapping facility working. However, whenever I turn off the computer, the next time I start the computer, the tapping becomes enabled again.
I would appreciate any help in curing the problem.
Thanks

as you've kept the model secret it's hard to answer, but most laptops use a touchpad made by synaptics so you could try installing the synaptics drivers and see if that cures it.

Look at this first.

Don't see how your link has any relevance at all to what the OP is asking, AlBags.

They want the drivers to retain the settings following a restart, not disable the touchpad while typing.

The point of this was to ensure the OP was aware of exactly where the settings were, and how (as he asked in the First sentence) to disable the tap device.

Sticking in drivers just to try them willy-nilly is a bad idea always .. How do you know if they are compatible? You don't! You should always use drivers for any hardware device that are recommended FIRST .. then seek further advice.

I'm really sorry folks for not responing to your replies before but for some reason, I don't seem to get emails from AB as used to be the case, I now have to go back to my original question to see if there has been any response. The model is MIM2120 (sorry, forgot to mention that) Thanks to you both for your assistance, very much appreciated. I will now check the links you have sent and have a go. It really is'nt a big problem as I can re-set it without the tapping in just a couple of minutes after starting up.
Your comments are appreciated Thank you
