You can also tap the Touch Pad to perform functions similar to those of the
left button.

Click: Tap the Touch Pad once

Double-click: Tap twice

Drag and drop: Tap to select the material you want to move. Leave your
finger on the Touch Pad after the second tap and move the material.

Make sure the connector is right side up and properly aligned with the
socket. Do not try to force the connection; doing so can damage the
connecting pins.

If you connect the floppy disk drive after turning on the computer, it will take
about 10 seconds for the computer to recognize the drive. Do not
disconnect and reconnect before 10 seconds has elapsed.
