Using the Mouse

Your PC includes a plain or a scrolling mouse. The mouse uses a roller ball or optics (a light) to sense movement and causes the cursor (pointer) on the screen to move.

Note: Use the mouse on a flat surface. The optical mouse cannot work on a glass, translucent, or reflective surface.

A wireless mouse functions the same way as other mouse types do, except it uses a receiver unit to communicate with your PC instead of a connector cable.

The mouse has two buttons on the top. 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.
