If your external mouse requires additional drivers, I would suspect that these drivers are conflicting with those for the touch-pad. You should remove the drivers for both pointing devices and then reinstall those for the pointing device that you wish to use.
Well you can´t have a mouse driver and a touchpad driver.I would try to get it going again uninstalling ´the mouse and touch pad in device manager,leave the mouse off.Reboot-it will want to install the touch pad.pick ´have disk´,maybe... (the mouse will still work With plug and play)
