To access Mouse Properties, select Start > Devices and Printers. Then right-click the device representing your computer, and select Mouse settings.

Using the TouchPad

To move the pointer, slide one finger across the TouchPad in the direction you want the pointer to go. Use the left and right TouchPad buttons like the buttons on an external mouse.
