The on-screen pointer may also seem to automatically select text, click buttons, and activate other user interface elements. For help with these problems, try one or more of the following: ❖ Try adjusting your typing technique to avoid accidental contact with the touchpad. You may be inadvertently brushing the touchpad with the heel of your hand as you type. Also, accidental light touches or taps on the touchpad may select an item or text on the screen, and potentially the item or text may be replaced by the next character you type. ❖ Temporarily disable the touchpad, so that it does not respond to touch or button presses while you type. See "Disabling or enabling the touchpad" on page 55. ❖ Adjust the sensitivity of the touchpad, so that it is less responsive to accidental light taps and lighter finger pressure. NOTE Touchpad setting options vary by computer model. The touchpad settings are accessible through the Mouse Properties option of the Windows Control Panel.
