My husband has set up the Ultrabook to use a mouse. this works fine but how do I undo this so don't have to use mouse? He says to pull mouse out but if I do the text jumps around and I get new bits of text popping up in the sentence before. I'm going...

switch from the mouse to the touchpad in control panel before you pull the mouse out.

Choosing to not use a mouse on this computer would require the user to lean forward constantly. It's not like a tablet that sits comfortably in your lap. I'm happy with this PC, but I would go crazy using it constantly without a mouse.

I wouldn't recommend anything as a replacement mouse. I grew up on desktops, and I have had a very unpleasing experience with trackpads when it comes to navigation. Even if you are just doing things like facebook, I would recommend getting a mouse.

I used the built-in touch pad on the laptop. Don't think there's enough room to maneuver a mouse effectively.

Weird, I have been diggin the touchpad actually. Seems very intuitive to me and I have not yet used a mouse.I think your question is ultimately rhetorical though - if you only use a mouse the performance of the touchpad is irrelevant.

In my opnion, and only mine, I would use the see keyboard and mouse that came with it...When I first got the yellow and black keyboard to halp me see better, I could not get it to work well, I think I had the batteries in the keyboard backward......I hope this helps. If you have a friend, relative or neighbor that has a different mouse and all is wireless, ask if you can try before committing.

There should be a usb plug-in attachment in the mouse itself. Disengage it and inset it into a usb receptacle in the computer. This should take care of your problem.

It's going to be very difficult using a mouse. I hate touchpads too. When I'm using the FitDeck I read or watch TV.

i to used the mouse on mac. there is no ay to fix this. this happened because of the os(operating system) it recognizes them as sub clicks so the answer is no

I have been using that mouse for a while and I'm actually using now. Had the same issues when I first got it too because I didn't understand it that much. 1. Check battery power levels, your batteries might be about to die. 2. No cheap batteries: I use rechargeable Sanyo Eneloop AAA's with a Lacrosse battery charger so I never have to buy batteries. I know the light is supposed to tell you to change but it sometimes doesn't for me but that's ok for me. 3. Always turn off the off switch under the mouse before shutting down your desktop or if you use a laptop like me, always turn off the switch before closing the laptop. 4. If those don't work, go to your PC settings to disconnect the mouse's sync to your machine completely then re-sync it again. 5. LAST RESORT: If those don't work, you need your money back. lol

The only suggestion I have is for you to turn off the 'Tapping' function on your mouse pad as you might be accidentally tapping on it as you use your space bar. I haven't had any problems with the two laptops we purchased from Asus, but I did turn off that function on both of them. Hope this helps.

well its a touch screen so you don't even need a mouse or to use the trackpad. the main reason I got this is because I have terrible carpal tunnel syndrome and tendonitis so I cannot click on the mouse, even the stylus pen can aggravate my symptoms if I use it for too long. I just use my fingers but I'm sure you can be able to install a wireless mouse or plug in a mouse with a USB cord. I just don't recommend using the mouse honestly because it will destroy your hands and rest over time. take advantage of the touch screen and save your tendons from straining every time you click.

Mine is a touchscreen! I read that review too. It must have been sorted improperly. I love the touchscreen interface, tho it does take some getting used to and I still prefer the mouse most of the time. But it really is handy

I didn't have any problem with the mouse other than it was too high for my desk, my scroll wheel worked fine, however my space bar is starting to stick again so I guess I will have to work on it some more. Actually I do like like this keyboard, one just has to be a good mechanic to keep it working, ha.

I just downloaded the software but didn't install it.Ordered the touchpad,I will be using it for a desktop which I would hope doesn't make a difference. Already have a Logitech wireless mouse which works well with the desktop,didn't have to install anything for that. Thanks for the info Ata.

I'd like to help very much but I'm not as computer savvy as you would hope!! However I do know this mouse is a crappy thing, it has a mind of it's own & will work if it wants to & won't!! Try another mouse to see if you get the same problem, the mouse I have also had the lights on but yet nobody was home!! Try another mouse from a friend if you don't have one & the best I can tell you is to buy another mouse that's value is $15. or more 7 it doesn't come from any part of Asia!!! Good luck & sorry you have the same bad luck I did!!!

I'd hope most likely you could get a replacement sent or if not maybe find a spare usb piece. if not that's just plain stupid because that piece is smaller than the tip of my finger. if I didn't use the mouse all the time and keep it plugged in my laptop, that usb would probably been long gone. Oh J Berry, this is how you program the mouse for any computer. First, open the door next to laser lens on bottom, insert 2 AA battery, and return and close lid over battery compartment. Okay! Okay, joking aside, insert USB plug into any USB port you have free(note: easiest to reach, seems to work great). Alright, turn mouse over and find switch which has 3 options; off, on with battery save(no lights), and ON( screw energy saver, this mouse is bomb), turn to either Ons. Bam mouse now works with you pc
