information about which port to choose.
More than one device can cause a conflict. Although the WinBook FX supports 2 pointing
devices, it is recommended that you only use one pointing device at a time to avoid device
conflicts.
Pointing devices typically have a right and left button. In application programs, the left button is
usually used to make selections. The function of the right button varies widely with different
software. Some applications allow you to assign functions to the right button. Refer to your
application
User’s Manual
for specific information on pointing device button functions.
NOTE: You can switch the "left- and right-handedness" of the buttons on your pointing device.
You can do this in the Windows 95 Control Panel mouse setting. Simply click and the driver will
reverse the operations.[FX 5-5]
Installing the Pointing Device Software Driver
You may have to install a new pointing device driver if your pointing device is not presently
supported by Windows 95. Check the
User’s Manual
that came with your pointing device. Use
the procedure described in "Installing the TouchPad Software Driver" in Chapter 1,
Getting
Started.
TouchPad Software Driver
If you have purchased a WinBook FX with a TouchPad installed, you can either use the standard
Windows 95 PS/2 mouse driver or an enhanced TouchPad driver. The enhanced driver allows
you to more accurately control the special actions of the TouchPad such as the tap and double-
taps. If the driver is already installed, you will see a TouchPad icon instead of the mouse icon in
the Control Panel screen. If you see the mouse icon, you may want to install the TouchPad driver
from the floppy disks that came with the system. See "Installing the TouchPad Software Driver"
in Chapter 1,
Getting Started.
Adding a Mouse
You can connect either a serial or PS/2 Microsoft compatible mouse to your WinBook FX. If
you connect an external PS/2 mouse before you turn on your WinBook FX, the WinBook FX
will automatically sense the mouse and enable it.
If you use a serial mouse, connect the mouse to the serial port located behind the small I/O door
on the backside of the WinBook FX. The small I/O door is located on the right side of the
WinBook FX as you face the backside. The serial port is the left connector inside of the small
bay.[FX 5-6]
If Windows 95 does not recognize your serial mouse, you will need to use Windows 95 to "Add
New Hardware."
Follow these steps to use the Add New Hardware feature:
Attach the mouse to the serial port.
