2. If you synch by tethering laptop to Blackberry, you will connect your USB cable to

this port.

Turning the laptop on

The Mouse

There are two ways to move your cursor.

What is the difference between left click and right click?

When you right click, a menu of choices will appear. (The menu will vary depending on

what application you are using .) By right clicking, you have the “right” to select from a

list of options what you want to do.

When you left click, you will complete the action you have selected.

Push the power button

above the keyboard.

You can use the blue button in the

middle of the keyboard and the right

and left buttons.

You can use the touch pad, and its

respective right and left mouse

buttons.

When you use the touch pad, you

point on it with your finger and it

moves the arrow to what ever field in

which you want to enter information.

Help! This new mouse does not move the cursor the way I

want it to. I drag my finger over the touch-pad and the

cursor does not respond the way I want it to.

You can adjust the settings for the touch-pad on these Dell laptops. To do

so, follow the steps below.

1. Click on the Start button.

•You can move your cursor to the start menu button and then left

click on it.

•Strike the key in the lower left corner of your keyboard. It will pull up the start menu.

2. Go to Settings.

3. Go to Control Panel.

4. Depending on your settings either a list will appear or a series of large icons. Select Mouse.

The following window will appear:

From the tabs across the top, select

Pointer Options.

This applies to both the button

mouse and the touch pad speed.

In the section called Motion, click speed to

fast, or whatever is comfortable for you.

You can move the pointer between

changing setting speed to see which you

like.

Make sure

Enhance pointer precision

checked.

It is sometimes convenient to have the

Snap To box checked, as it takes your

mouse immediately to the little dialog box.

Click on Apply.

Click on OK.

Logging into Windows

When you first open your laptop, it will ask you to log into Windows.

Hold down the Control, Alt, and Delete keys all at once.

You will then need to enter your Windows User Name and password.

Windows User ID for most employees is the first initial followed by last name (no

spaces). If that doesn’t work, try first and middle initial followed by last name.

HRSM Employees who are also Beaumont employees, can also use your WBH

Employeed ID Number for your Windows User ID.

Your Windows password is whatever password you selected during the Password

Self Service process.

In the Log onto box, make sure this box says

MSWBH

. You should not need to

change this.

Click on OK.

You will now see your Desktop.

The Desktop

While the format may vary from this picture, you will find the following icons on your

desktop:

CheckPoint VPN: This is

what gives you permission to

connect the laptop to the BHC

Network. You need to click

here first before you try to get

your e-mail or synch your

Roadnotes documentation.

Roadnotes: This is the

application you use to enter

your schedule and complete

your clinical documentation.

Desktop Manager and

VZAccess Manager: You

will use these if you opt to

tether your laptop to your

Blackberry. This is one

method of synchinig your

laptop.

2XWORRN:This is

BHC’s email application.

Start Menu: Where you

where you shut down

the laptop.

Logging into RoadNotes

Double click on the RoadNotes icon.

Enter your User ID.

This is a 6-digit

number assigned by

BHC.

Enter your Password.

This is whatever

password you created

during the Password

Change Process.

Click on OK.

You get three chances to log into RoadNotes correctly. If you are

unsuccessful on the third try, you will be locked out of RoadNotes.

If you are locked out, you will need to contact Andrew Gould or Jenny Ortner at the HRSM

Office. If you are locked out afterhours, you can call BHC and ask to speak to the BTI

Coordinator who is on-call.

What if I cannot log into RoadNotes?

Problem: I cannot log into RoadNotes.

Solution: Check to see if the Caps Lock or Num Lock are activated.

Your passwords are case sensitive. If these functions are activated, you think you are

typing in the correct password or user ID, but in fact, you are not.

How to check: Once you open your laptop and start it up, look in the small display

window just above the keyboard. Look for these icons

If they are illuminated, this means the caps lock and/or numbers lock is ON. They

should be OFF.

To turn off the caps lock key, strike the Caps Lock key once. The indicator should

disappear.

To turn off the num lock key, strike the NumLk/ScrLk key once. The indicator should

disappear.

Refer to the diagram below if you are unsure where these keys are located on the

keyboard.

Shutting down the laptop

**WARNING! Do NOT use

Standby

mode. BHC tells us users have

the potential to lose data, corrupt databases, and damage the

hard drive when you use this. Simply closing the cover of the

Standby mode and should not be done.

To completely shut down your laptop:

1. Click on the Start button in the bottom right

corner of your desktop screen.

2. Click Shut Down.

3. In the Shut Down Windows box,

select Shut down from the drop-

down menu.

4. Click OK.

The laptop will then completely power itself off (shut down).

In order to restart the laptop, use the switch on the right side of the computer. The

laptop will then power up to your Windows logon screen.
