How to change the settings of Vista mouse pointer

Don't want the mouse pointer to can an action. You want to order by clicks.

Have Vista.  When I use the mouse in Vista images or other areas, different things start happening simply by pointing the mouse on an object.  I want to be able to point at something and don't have anything happen unless I click on the mouse buttons.  How to replace the pointer (but still keep the visable pointer)?   I went in the mouse controls and couldn't find a substitution.  Thank you.

Hello

If a mouse (or if you use a touch screen and a mouse)

Start - computer, or Windows Explorer - Tools - Folder Options - general tab - check the
Double-click to open an item - APPLY / OK (so well then set change as if you planned
to leave it like that and then go back and change it back
).

Control Panel - mouse - look for the settings for hover or click Automatic or similar depending on your mouse.

When a TouchPad

Look in the Notification area next to the clock for all TouchPad control program.

Control Panel - mouse - also look for it TouchPad (mine is on the device however settings tab
other brands and maybe on the other tabs and more than one). There are usually the parameters that
can determine if a click, double click, hover or can open or close a program.

Start - computer, or Windows Explorer - Tools - Folder Options - general tab - check the
Double-click to open an item - APPLY / OK

If some people are well positioned can change to some other setting if you plan to leave
them that way and then change again.

Hope this helps

  • How to change the settings of Windows 8 trackpad

    I have an Asus S400C with Windows 8 is installed and pain with my trackpad.

    I'm used to be able to scroll with two fingers on the trackpad, but this function seems to have completely abandoned.

    When I got my phone a few months ago, that this would work sporadically, but now nothing. I tried to hunt around in settings, etc. to see if it needs to be enabled/disabled, however I can not even find the trackpad settings! I searched touchpad/trackpad etc. and looked through the settings of the mouse, but none seem to control the current laptop keyboard. Instead, it maintains direct me to the tactile features on the current screen.

    I'm so use to scroll with one finger on my screen while using the mouse trackpad for other features...

    I tried to have some Google around for this online but everyone seems to have slightly different questions and no not to Asus - some answers have to give on the brand of computer - but wouldn't it be bound to the windows software and where touchpad info are stored?

    If anyone knows how to change the functions of the trackpad, or at least where to find who would be most appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hello

    There are several different manufacturers of the Trackpads. The computer manufacturer decides what trackpad to install based on compatibility with other hardware and software on the system.

    The computer manufacturer will include a utility for the trackpad, which is designed for this particular model options. It is usually a utility that adds a Trackpad tab in the Control Panel/mouse component, or it may be a separate control panel item.

    You must contact the Asus support for a solution.

  • Sam 2410: How to change the settings of M/S to CSEL on SD-R6472

    Hi guys, think that I did a bit of a hash of the evolution of my CD recorder to a DVD burner. My notbook is a 2410-601 and wanted to upgrade to a DVD burner. I know now that the old CD writer has the value M/S, but the new DVD burner is CSEL. Needless to say, it doesn't work. Is it possible that this problem can be resolved or I simply bought the wrong drive?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I think firstly you should try changing the settings of the DVD of CSEL to M/S drive. On the disk image, you can find the description how to set up the small rider.
