    You need to install the Manufacturer's Touchpad driver. ie Synaptics/Elan. Then you'll have the option to turn off touchpad when mouse detected.
    Most notebooks have a key to disable touchpad as well. ie, FN+F3. There should be a symbol on your keyboard ....

    Install wrong driver for the touchpad, then you can disable it.
