1.	Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2.	Double-click the Mouse icon.
3.	In the Mouse Properties dialog box, click the Pointer Options tab.
4.	Move the Adjust how fast your pointer moves slider to the left until it is set at level five or lower.
5.	Click OK to save the settings.
