Getting Started

Using the TouchPad™

Checking total memory

When you add or remove a memory module, you can check
that the computer has recognized the change. To do this:

1

Click Start, Control Panel, Performance and
Maintenance
, and then System.

2

The General tab view automatically appears and shows
total memory.

If the computer does not recognize the memory
configuration, turn off the computer, remove the memory slot
cover, and check that the module is inserted completely into
the socket and lined up squarely with the socket clips.

Using the TouchPad

The TouchPad, the small, smooth square cutout located in
front of the keyboard, is sensitive to touch and enables you to
move the cursor with the stroke of a finger. Simply move
your finger on the TouchPad in the direction you would like
to move the cursor:

To move the cursor to the top of the page, push your
finger forward on the TouchPad.

To move the cursor to the bottom of the page, drag your
finger toward yourself.

To move the cursor to the right side of the page, slide
your finger across the TouchPad from left to right.

To move it to the left side, slide your finger from right to
left.

Because the TouchPad is much smaller than the display
screen, moving your cursor across the screen often means
having to move your finger several times across the TouchPad
in the preferred direction.
