Using pointing devices
NOTE: In addition to the pointing devices included with your computer, you can use an external
USB mouse (purchased separately) by connecting it to one of the USB ports on the computer.
Setting pointing device preferences
Use Mouse Properties in Windows to customize settings for pointing devices, such as button
configuration, click speed, and pointer options.
To access Mouse Properties, select Start > Devices and Printers. Then right-click the device
representing your computer, and select Mouse settings.
Using the TouchPad
To move the pointer, slide one finger across the TouchPad in the direction you want the pointer to go.
Use the left and right TouchPad buttons like the buttons on an external mouse. To scroll up and down
using the TouchPad vertical scroll zone, slide your finger up or down over the lines.
NOTE: If you are using the TouchPad to move the pointer, you must lift your finger off the
TouchPad before moving it to the scroll zone. Simply sliding your finger from the TouchPad to the
scroll zone does not activate the scrolling function.
Turning the TouchPad off and on
To turn the TouchPad off and on, quickly double-tap the TouchPad light.
NOTE: The TouchPad light is white when the TouchPad is on. The TouchPad light is amber when
the TouchPad is off.
