It sounds like some of the advanced features of your touchpad have been disabled because you have plugged in another pointing device (mouse).

Whenever I had to deal with Synaptics touchpad driving crap, I immediately uninstall it. I don't notice any "extra" features lost with it anyway...

Why does it say, "The advanced features of your touchpad have been disabled because the Synaptics TouchPad Driver has detected another pointing device plugged into your computer."? When there is no other pointing device plugged into my computer

I would do that. It's probably the easiest way to fix it.
