using the mouse
Your PC includes a mouse for directing the cursor (pointer) on the Windows
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.
NOTE: The optical mouse cannot work on a glass, translucent, or reflective
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
PC. A light on the receiver indicates receiver activity. Refer to “wireless
keyboard set” on page 23 for receiver indicator information.
