Keyboard and Pointing Device (Mouse) Problems
The built-in keyboard accepts no input -
n
This notebook is designed to use only one keyboard at once
time. If you had already connected an external keyboard to
the system, the built-in keyboard won’t work. Disconnect
the external keyboard and try to reboot the notebook.
n
If there is no external keyboard connected, still restart the
system again.
The external PS/2 or serial mouse does not work -
n
Some external mouse comes with special function (such as
3 buttons). In that case you may need to disable the built-in
touch pad. Go to Section 2
BIOS Setup
for instructions on
how to disable the internal pointing device.
n
A special mouse may require a unique driver. Make sure the
driver is properly installed.
n
A special external mouse with the thumb-wheel (scroll-
wheel) is not plug-and-playable. In order to enable this
device, you need to have the mouse connected to the P/S2
port before powering up to Windows. Also, you may need to
install the driver, which is specifically designed for this
special type of mouse, to make it work.
The built-in touch pad does not work -
n
Make sure the internal PS/2 port (pointing device) is enabled
(or set to Auto Detect) in the BIOS Setup. Go to Section 2
BIOS Setup for details on how to enable the PS/2 mouse.
The built-in touch pad performs eratically -
n
Make sure there is no excess perspiration or humidity on
your hand which might make the pointing device short.
Keep the surface of the touch pad clean and dry.
n
Do not rest your hand or wrist on the surface of the touch
pad while typing or using the touch pad. Since the pointing
device can sense any movement of figertip, to rest your
hand on the surface would lead to the sluggish and slow-
moving performance.
