Pointing Devices (all 3 devices are active simultaneously)
Mouse – plug a mouse into any USB port.
TouchPad – slide your finger around on the touchpad (14). The buttons below the touchpad are
left and right clicks.
TrackPoint – the pencil eraser-thing in the middle of the keyboard (11)
Put the tip of your finger on it and gently push in different directions. The 3 buttons below the
space bar work with the TrackPoint. The outside buttons are left and right click, the middle
button turns the TrackPoint into a scroller.
You'll get a little scrolling symbol on the screen. What part of the screen scrolls depends on
where the symbol is.
I like to put my mouse in the lower USB port, leaving the upper port open for USB flash drives
and other devices. There's also another USB port on the left side of the computer.

Using an LCD projector

If you turn on the LCD projector first, then connect the cable to the laptop's external monitor
connector (5), then turn on the laptop, the computer will usually recognize the projector as an
external monitor and show what's on the laptop screen up on the projection screen. If it
doesn't, try Fn-F7 to run the Presentation Director and choose where to show the computer
image. The Presentation Director lives at Start > Programs > Accessories > Administrative Tools
> ThinkVantage.

DVDs

The standard CD/DVD drive (9) can play all kinds of CDs and DVDs. It can write to CD-R and CD-
RW discs, but cannot record onto DVD discs. Press the button on the drive door to open the
tray. and insert the disc. Gently push the tray back in to close it. If the window doesn't
automatically come up asking which program to use to play a DVD, you can go to START >
PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > ENTERTAINMENT > MEDIA PLAYER CLASSIC. Then pull down File to
Open DVD.

CD Writing

Right click on a file or folder you want to put on the CD and select Send To > Drag-to-Disc Drive
(D). To complete the process, open My Computer. Right click on the CD and pull down to
"Write these files to CD." The disc will eject when it's finished writing.
