| the pointer to move. |

| mouse, to make your selection. |
| ∙ To open an application, move the pointer over the icon, then press the left button |
| twice rapidly. |
| ∙ To make menu selections, move the pointer to the item and press the left button |
| once. |
| ∙ To open the shortcut menu for an item, move the pointer over the item and click |

| The default pointing device driver (PS/2 TrackPoint) supports the enhanced features of |
| the pointing stick and basic features the touch pad. |
| You can customize the OmniBook to support enhanced touch pad features (see the next |
| topic). If you do this, keep in mind that you are selecting enhanced features for the touch |
| pad only. You cannot activate enhanced features for both simultaneously. |
|
|
Windows 2000 | Under Windows 2000, enhanced features for the pointing stick and touch pad are not |
| available at this time. Check the Customer Care website |
| (http://www.hp.com/cposupport/eschome.html) for PS/2 TrackPoint and touch pad |
| device drivers for Windows 2000. The default pointing device driver is the standard |
| PS/2 Compatible Mouse driver. |
