Touchpad

The built-in touchpad is a PS/2-compatible pointing device
that senses movement on its surface. This means the
cursor responds as you move your finger on the surface of
the touchpad. The central location on the palm rest
provides optimum comfort and support.
Note: When you connect an external PS/2 mouse, the
computer automatically disables the internal touchpad.

Touchpad Basics

The following items teach you how to use the touchpad:
Move your finger across the touchpad to move the
cursor.
Press the left and right buttons located on the edge of
the touchpad to do selection and execution functions.
These two buttons are similar to the left and right
buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad produces
similar results.
