To adjust the speed of your mouse pointer

1. Open Mouse in Control Panel.
2. Click the Motion tab, and then under Speed, drag the slider.

Notes

• The speed of your mouse pointer causes the pointer to respond more quickly or slowly to the movements of the mouse itself.
• You can have the mouse snap to default buttons in dialog boxes by selecting Move pointer to the default button in dialog boxes. Selecting this option will make the cursor move automatically to the default button when you open a dialog box.
• You can specify how quickly the mouse pointer accelerates to its maximum speed under Acceleration.
