Computing tips
Save your work frequently.
Your work stays in the computer’s temporary memory 
until you save it to the disk. You will lose all unsaved 
work, if, for example, a system error occurs and you must 
restart your computer, or your battery runs out of charge 
while you are working. Your computer can be configured 
to warn you when the battery is running low. 
HINT: Some programs have an automatic save feature that you can 
turn on. This feature saves your file to the hard disk at preset 
intervals. See your software documentation for details.
Back up your files to diskettes (or other removable 
storage media) on a regular basis. Label the backup 
copies clearly and store them in a safe place.
Scan all new files for viruses.
Never turn off the computer if a drive indicator light 
indicates a drive is active.
The Windows
® 
XP operating system records information, such as 
your desktop setup, during its shutdown procedure. If you do not let 
the operating system shut down normally, details such as new icon 
positions may be lost.
Using the TouchPad
The TouchPad, the small, smooth square cutout located in 
front of the keyboard, is sensitive to touch and enables you to 
move the cursor with the stroke of a finger. Simply move 
your finger on the TouchPad in the direction you would like 
to move the cursor: 
To move the cursor to the top of the page, push your 
finger forward on the TouchPad.
To move the cursor to the bottom of the page, drag your 
finger toward yourself.
To move the cursor to the right side of the page, slide 
your finger across the TouchPad from left to right.
