TrackPoint III Checkout (2640)
TrackPoint III Checkout
If the TrackPoint III
does not work, check the configuration in the ThinkPad Features program.
If the configuration of the TrackPoint III is disabled,
select Enable to enable it.
If this does not correct the TrackPoint III problem, continue
with the following.
The TrackPoint III adjust the pointer sensor automatically.
During this process, the pointer moves on the
screen automatically for a short time.
This self-acting pointer movement can occur when
a slight, steady pressure is applied to the TrackPoint III
pointer while
the computer is powered on or while the system is running, or
re-adjustment is required
because the temperature has exceeded its normal operating range.
This symptom does not indicate a hardware problem. No service actions
are necessary if the pointer movement stops in a short period of time.
If a click button problem or pointing stick problem
occurs, do the following:
- Go to the Easy-Setup screen.
- Select an item with the pointing stick.
- Press either the left or right click button.
- Verify that both buttons work correctly.
If either the pointing stick or the click button do not work, do the
following actions one at a time to correct the problem. Do not replace a non defective FRU.
- Reseat the keyboard cables.
- Replace the keyboard.
- Replace the system board.
