How do you choose the desired input before starting Skyrim?

I usually leave my USB joypad always connected to the PC, but Skyrim decides that it should be the main input, so I am enforced to disconnect it before start to play.

Is there a setting that I can define to always use keyboard/mouse as main input without disconnecting joypad?

I found a setting in SkyrimPrefs.ini that you can define before starting Skyrim.

Under [MAIN] section bGamepadEnable=0 disable the joypad bGamepadEnable=1 enable it.

I had the same issue, it automatically picky my Gamepad as input on first starting Skyrim. There was an option called "360 Controller" in the System->Settings menu, after disabling it Skyrim defaults to mouse and keyboard on every start.
