Using the Touch Pad
You can point to, select, drag, and scroll objects on the screen using the touch pad.
You can disable/enable the touch pad while a mouse is connected to your computer. To change the touch pad settings, use the VAIO Control Center.
!
Be sure to connect a mouse before disabling the touch pad. If you disable the touch pad before connecting a mouse, you will be able to use only the 
keyboard for pointer operations.
