Glad it helped.  That is the main reason I use this thing too is to get 
rid of that blasted trackpad.  I use the usb because I don't like that 
adapter sticking out of my laptop but then the bios doesn't shut off the 
pad.  I then use the following:
DEVICE=D:\OS2\BOOT\USBMOUSE.SYS /DEVICE:1
which turns off the ps2 mouse entirely.  The disadvantage to this method 
is that if for some reason I don't have my trackman then I have to edit 
the config.sys to get a mouse.
