How to Use the Touchpad
The touchpad integrated in your notebook is a pointing device that is compatible with
standard mouse, allowing you to control the notebook by pointing the location of the cursor
on the screen.
• Configure the Touchpad
You can customize the pointing device to meet your personal needs. For example, if
you are a left-handed user, you may want to swap the functions of the two buttons.
In addition, you can change the size, shape, moving speed and other advanced
features of the cursor on the screen.
To configure the touchpad, you can use the standard Microsoft or IBM PS/2 driver in
your Windows operating system. The Mouse Properties in Control Panel allows you
to change the configuration.
• Position and Move
Place your finger on the touchpad (usually using the forefinger), and the rectangular
pad will act as a miniature duplicate of your display. When you move your fingertip
across the pad, the cursor on the screen will move simultaneously to the same
direction. When your finger reaches the edge of the pad, lift your finger and place it
on a proper location of the touchpad to continue the movement.
• Point and Click
When you have moved and placed the cursor over an icon, a menu item or a
command that you want to execute, simply tap slightly on the touchpad or press
the left button to select. This procedure, called as point and click is the basics of
operating your notebook. Unlike the traditional pointing device such as the mouse,
the whole touchpad can act as a left button, so that your each tap on the touchpad is
equivalent to pressing the left button. Tapping twice more rapidly on the touchpad is
to execute a double-click.
