Using the optical mouse
Your computer is delivered with a VAIO PS/2 optical mouse, which uses a light-emitting diode (LED) instead 
of a ball. Avoid using the mouse on a piece of glass or other transparent material, as this can interfere with 
smooth cursor movement on the screen.
 
You can adjust the mouse pointer speed and other functions under Mouse Properties. To display Mouse 
Properties
, go to the Control Panel, select Printers and Other Hardware, then select Mouse.
You can set the mouse up for left-hand use. See the Troubleshooting 
 section for details.
