Touch Pad

What should I do if the touch pad does not work?

❑You may have disabled the touch pad without connecting a mouse to your computer. See Using the Touch Pad (page 31).

❑Make sure that a mouse is not connected to your computer.

❑If the pointer does not move while a software application is running, press the Alt+F4 keys to close the application window.

❑If the Alt+F4 keys do not work, click Start, the arrow next to the Lock button, and Restart to restart your computer.

❑If your computer does not restart, press the Ctrl+Alt+Delete keys and click the arrow next to the Shut down button and Restart.

If the Windows Security window appears, click Restart.

❑If this procedure does not work, press and hold the power button until the computer turns off.

Turning off your computer with the power button may cause loss of unsaved data.
