Using a mouse
You can only connect one PS/2 device at a time, unless you use an
optional Y-cable. Connecting a Y-cable to the computer’s PS/2
port allows you to connect aPS/2-compatible mouse and a PS/2-
compatible keyboard simultaneously.
Alternatively, you can connect a USB keyboard and mouse to the
USB ports.
Using a mouse
If you prefer, you can use a mouse instead of the computer’s built-
in pointing device–the AccuPoint II. You can use a PS/2-
compatible mouse, a serial mouse or a USB mouse.
TECHNICAL NOTE: A serial mouse disables the
AccuPointII. With a PS/2 o r USB mouse, you can choose to
have the AccuPoint II active at the same time.

port at the back of the computer. Once connected, the mouse is
ready to use.
Refer to your mouse documentation for configuration information.

Connecting a USB mouse

To connect a USB mouse, connect the mouse cable to the USB
port on the computer. Once connected, the mouse is ready to use.
