getting started

Q My cursor jumps to a different location on the display or does not respond at

all. What’s wrong?

A It is probably one of two things:

❂Your touchpad is dirty.

Clean the touchpad with a damp cloth (water only) and wipe it dry.

❂Your touchpad is set to accept tapping.

See “using the touchpad” in chapter 3 for more information about

tapping.
