TABLE NOTE: If you swap the left and right buttons, "tapping" on the touchpad
as an alternative method of pressing the left button will no longer be valid.

Configuring the Touchpad

You may want to configure the touchpad to suit your needs. For example,
if you are a left-handed user, you can swap the two buttons so that you can
use the right button as the left button and vise versa. You can also change
the size of the on-screen pointer, the speed of the pointer, and so on.
To configure the touchpad if you are using Windows Vista, go to Control
Panel Hardware and Sounds
Windows XP, you can use the standard Microsoft or IBM PS/2 driver.
However, you can install the touchpad driver supplied with your
computer to take advantage of more powerful features. (For information
on installing the driver, see "How to Use the Driver Disc" in Chapter 6.)
Operating Your Computer
To scroll is to move up and down or left and right in the
working area on the screen.
To move vertically, place your finger on the right edge of
the pad and slide your finger up and down along the edge.
To move horizontally, place your finger on the bottom
edge of the pad and slide your finger left and right.
This function works only after you install the touchpad
driver supplied with the computer and it may not work for
all applications.
