❑

If you connected an external mouse while your notebook is on, you must
restart your notebook.

❑

If you are using an optional Sony USB mouse PCGA-UMS1, check that the
mouse is plugged into the USB connector.

My touchpad does not work properly.

❑

You may have disabled the touchpad without a mouse being connected to the
notebook. You must restart the notebook to make the touchpad work again.

❑

If your touchpad is interpreting a single tap as a double-click, you must
adjust the button assignments. Follow these steps:

1

Click Start, point to Control Panel, and then click on the Mouse icon.

2

Change the button assignments in the Mouse Properties dialog box.
(One of the buttons is assigned to the double-click action.)

The pointer does not move (while using the Touchpad or Mouse).

❑

Click the Start button on the Windows taskbar, and select Shut Down to
display the Shut Down Windows dialog box, then press Enter.

❑

If you cannot turn off your notebook as described in the step above, press
Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart the notebook.

❑

If you cannot restart your notebook as described in the step above, press and
hold the power button for more than four seconds to turn off the notebook.

❑

If the pointer does not move while playing a disc, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to
stop playback and restart the notebook.

Troubleshooting drives, PC cards and peripheral devices

I inserted a compatible device into the multipurpose drive bay, but the icon
does not appear in the My Computer window.

❑

The device has not been recognized. Put the notebook into System Idle mode
by pressing the Fn and S keys and then resume.

❑

If the device is still not recognized or does not appear in the My Computer
window, remove and reinsert it.
