Using the Mouse
Your PC includes a plain or a scrolling mouse.
The mouse uses a roller ball or optics (a light) to
sense movement and causes the cursor (pointer)
on the screen to move.
Note:
Use the mouse on a flat surface. The optical
mouse cannot work on a glass, translucent, or
reflective surface.
A wireless mouse functions the same way as
other mouse types do, except it uses a receiver
unit to communicate with your PC instead of a
connector cable.
The mouse has two buttons on the top. Click
the left mouse button to position the cursor or
to select an item. Click the right mouse button
to display a menu of commands available for
the item you clicked.
Left button
Right button
Scroll wheel button
(scrolling mouse only)
You can change the configuration of these
two mouse buttons for left-handed use. Refer to
“Switching mouse button functions” on page 16.
To change the speed of the cursor on the screen
see “Changing the mouse pointer speed” on
page 17.
