> check and see if you have an icon at the right of your start bar for Synaptics… if you do you can right click on it and disable it. If not, download this [http://www.synaptics.com/support/drivers](http://www.synaptics.com/support/drivers), restart, etc. Then see if you have the icon. You should, then you should be able to disable the tap function.

Can I get a screen shot of the icon good sir?
