Note Using Your Computer Operating the Computer = To disable the touch pad, press the Pad Lock button. (The amber touch pad indicator lights.) To reenable it, press the Pad Lock button again. You may wish to disable the touch pad, for example, when you are entering text and do not want to move the cursor accidentally. Avoid contact with the touch pad itself at the same time you are pressing the Pad Lock button (to disable or to reenable); simultaneous contact will not allow the Pad Lock button to work properly. To customize the operation of the touch pad (and an external PS/2 or serial mouse, if installed), double-click the Synaptics Touch Pad icon to access Mouse Properties; you will find the icon in the taskbar, toward the lower right corner of your screen. Select the tab corresponding to the characteristics you want to configure, including: = button configuration for right-handed or left-handed operation (Button tab for mouse, Button Actions tab for touch pad) = double-click speed, pointer speed, and pointer trail = click sensitivity The touch pad is by default inactive when an external mouse is installed. You can enable both touch pad and an external pointing device by changing the BIOS setting.
