106 Reference Guide
• Support for the euro symbol requires software available from Microsoft. This
software is installed in the factory software, but may not be included with retail
Windows.
Special pointing stick features stop working after docking
• For Windows 95/98, if you set PS/2 Pointing Devices to Auto in BIOS Setup and
enable special features of the pointing stick such as “press-to-select” or “scrolling”,
and then dock and undock with the OmniBook powered on, the special pointing-stick
features may stop working. Note that this problem does not happen when docking and
undocking in Suspend mode. Try one of the following:
In BIOS Setup, set PS/2 Pointing Devices to Both. (This preserves special pointing-
stick features after hot docking and undocking, but you can’t enable special features
such as a scrolling button for a PS/2 mouse connected to the dock.)
Suspend the OmniBook before undocking, or suspend and resume after undocking.
(This preserves special pointing-stick features and lets you enable special features for
a dock PS/2 mouse.)
Open TrackPoint Control Panel and click on a setting (it can be one already selected)
so that the Apply button is not grayed out. Then select OK or Apply. (This restores
special pointing-stick features after hot undocking.)
If an external keyboard and mouse connected to a dock don’t work after docking
• Try swapping the keyboard and mouse connections on the dock. These PS/2 devices
should work correctly even if their connections are swapped.
