Hardware
Mouse
Your PC includes an
optical scrolling mouse.
When you move the
mouse, it uses light and
an optical sensor, instead
of a roller ball, to sense
movement. Use the optical
mouse on an opaque
surface.

mouse buttons
Like an ordinary mouse,
the scrolling mouse has
two buttons on the top:
the left button, called the
primary button, and the
right button, called the
secondary button.
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.
Dragging and
dropping
You can click and drag an
item to move it.
n
The optical mouse
cannot work on a
glass, translucent,
or reflective
surface.

then press and hold
down the left mouse
button.
2
Move the mouse to
position the cursor; the
item is dragged along.
3
Release the button
to drop the item into
place.
If you press and hold
down the right mouse
button when you click and
drag, a menu appears
when you release the
button to drop the item.
The menu lets you move,
copy, or create a shortcut
for the item.
Changing for

configuration of the
primary and secondary
mouse buttons for left-
