Using the Touch Pad | Installing the Touch Pad/Mouse Driver
The PS/2-compatible touch pad detects the position of your
finger over a touch-sensitive area and provides the computer full mouse functionality. The
touch pad’s 2 buttons correspond to the left and right buttons on a standard mouse.
To move the cursor, lightly slide your finger over the smooth sensor area. To select an
object, gently tap once on the surface of the touch pad (emulates pressing the left mouse
button). To select and move (or drag) an object, position the cursor on the object and tap
down-up-down on the touch pad. On the second down motion, leave your finger on the touch
pad and move the selected object by sliding your finger across the surface. To
double-click on an object, position the cursor on the object and then tap twice.
You can customize touch pad and cursor features in the Microsoft� Windows�
95 operating system. Click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click
Control Panel. Double-click the Mouse icon. Select the General tab and click the Options
button.
To use the touch pad, the PS/2 Mouse option in the System Devices menu of the Setup
program must be enabled (the default). Dell has already installed the touch pad drivers.

NOTES: Keep your fingers away from the touch pad while the computer is booting or
loading the operating system. If you touch the touch pad at either time, the cursor will
not move until you remove your finger from the touch pad surface. The touch
pad is inoperable if an external PS/2 mouse is attached. |
See Installing Utilities and Drivers for information about
reinstalling touch pad/mouse drivers.
