    GETTING STARTED USING THE TOUCHPAD A touchpad pointing device comes built into your computer. It is used to control the movement of the pointer to select items on your display panel. The touchpad consists of a cursor control, and a clicking area. The cursor control works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor around the display.

To left-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the clicking area once, and then immediately release it. To right-click, move the mouse cursor to the item you wish to select, tap on the touchpad with two fingers. You also have the option to perform the clicking operation by tapping lightly on the touchpad once. Double-Clicking Double-clicking means pushing and releasing the clicking area twice in rapid succession. To double-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the clicking area twice, and then immediately release it.
