Enlarge and speed up the mouse pointer

The SideCar adds up to four displays to your notebook desktop, for a total of five displays (sometimes six, with the notebook secondary display port under Windows XP). With such a large virtual desktop, users may find that they lose track of the mouse pointer at times. They may also find it laborious to move the pointer across several screens.

To prevent losing track of the pointer, users can easily enlarge the size of their mouse pointer, change it to a colored or 3D shape, or both. They can also speed up mouse movements and change other mouse attributes. Users make these changes via the Mouse Properties dialog box, one of the utilities in the Windows Control Panel.

How to change the mouse pointer:

1.Open the Windows Control Panel:

ƒWindows 2000/XP: Double-click on “My Computer” on the desktop, then double- click on “Control Panel” – or,

ƒWindows 2000: Click “Start”, “Settings”, “Control Panel”.

ƒWindows XP: Click “Start”, “Control Panel”.

2.Double-click “Mouse” to open the “Mouse Properties” dialog box.

3.Click on the “Pointers” tab, which looks like this in Windows 2000:
