Connecting a Universal Serial Bus (USB) device
You can connect a USB device (for example, a mouse, floppy disk drive, keyboard, printer) to your computer.
Before connecting or disconnecting a USB peripheral, you do not need to shut down the computer.
You may need to install software (device drivers) supplied with your USB device before using the USB device.
There are 3 USB ports on your notebook (at the back, at the left, at the right) and 2 USB ports at the back
of the optional port replicator.
Connecting a USB mouse
To connect a USB mouse, proceed as follows:
1
Choose the USB connector you prefer to use (at
the back, left or right of the notebook (1) or the
optional port replicator).
2
Plug the USB mouse cable (2) into the USB
connector.
You can use your USB mouse (3).
The VAIO USB mouse software driver is preinstalled on your
notebook, therefore, you only need to plug the USB mouse into the
USB connector and you can start working.
