ThinkPad General Tips
1 CD ROM drive door
When closing the CD-ROM drive door, push in at the centre. You may use a paper
clip in the small hole beside the eject button as an emergency eject. If you did not
engage the bearings on the hub of the CD when you inserted it, it may have be-
come jammed in the drive. Do not force the door open.
Take your machine to the
Instructional Technology Support Centre.
2 Shut down
To shut down the notebook, first select Shut Down from the Start menu, and then
when the notebook completes shutting down, it will automatically turn itself off. If it
does not, wait a few minutes before using the switch to turn it off.
3 Track Point
The red cap on the track point will eventually wear out. A new one may be pur-
chased from the Bookstore. Avoid using the track point to play games. It was
designed to provide mouse functionality without the inconvenience of carrying
around a mouse. We suggest the purchase of a mouse for use at home.
4 Cursor Drift
If you notice your cursor is drifting, let the cursor continue until it stops. Do not fight
it, you will not win! This is simply a sign that it is recalibrating. It can take up to one
minute to recalibrate. If it does a lot of drifting, you may be pressing too hard or too
softly on the track point.
