Getting Started

Setting up your computer

 

 

 

Connecting a mouse

You may want to use a mouse or trackball instead of the computer’s built-in TouchPad. Your notebook computer supports USB and PS/2-compatible pointing devices.

The TouchPad® can remain operable, even if you connect a secondary pointing device to the computer. For more information, see “Toshiba Hardware Setup” on page 172.

Using a USB mouse

1Connect the mouse cable to the USB port.

2Install the vendor supplied software that came with the mouse, if needed.

Using a PS/2 mouse

The system cannot detect a PS/2 mouse if you connect it after starting the computer.

NOTE: If you connect a PS/2 mouse to the computer while it is in Standby mode, you will not be able to use the mouse when you turn the computer on.

CAUTION: When connecting any PS/2 device, turn off your computer to prevent any possible hardware damage.

1Attach the PS/2 mouse cable to the PS/2 port.

2Refer to your mouse documentation for configuration steps.
