If you're having trouble using the pointer, read the following troubleshooting tips before you call technical support.

What's wrong?

• I have to move the mouse or trackball too far to move the pointer across the screen.
• Sometimes I can't find the pointer on the screen (it seems to be hidden).
• The pointer doesn't move smoothly on the screen.
• When I move the mouse or trackball, the pointer moves in a different direction on the screen.
