Troubleshooting the Mouse and Touchpad
My mouse does not work.
If you are using an optional Sony PCGA-UMS1 series USB mouse, verify 
that the mouse is plugged into the USB port. See “Connecting a USB 
Device” in the online user guide for more information.
If you are still experiencing problems, use your supplied Driver Recovery 
CD to reinstall the mouse drivers. See “To use the Driver Recovery CD(s)” 
on page 55
 for more information.

notebook. To enable the touchpad:
1
Press the Windows key and use the directional arrow keys to select 
Programs, and then Sony Notebook Setup.
