>ok, did that. there is nothing under Mouse settings related to pointing stick... I had the same problem. The screen allowing you to disable the pointer is apparently not present in the base XP. You need to install the Dell-specific touchpad driver, available from Dell support at the URL below. Once I installed this, I was able to disable the stick and got access to many other tweakable parameters as well. http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&releaseid=R61162&SystemID=INS_PNT_CEL_4000&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=283&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=4&formatcnt=1&fileid=77108
