Using the Mouse
Your computer includes a mouse for directing the cursor (pointer) on the Windows Vista
desktop. The mouse uses a roller ball or optics (a light and sensor) to sense movement and
cause the cursor on the screen to move. Use the mouse on a flat surface.
A wireless mouse (select models only) is an optical mouse that uses a receiver/transmitter,
instead of a connector cable, to communicate with your computer. A light on the receiver
indicates receiver activity.
NOTE: The optical mouse cannot work on a glass, translucent, or reflective surface.
NOTE: The wireless mouse goes into a sleep or suspend mode after 20 minutes of
inactivity. Click a button on the mouse to wake it. (Moving the wireless mouse does not
wake it.)
