Mouse "clicks Through" Windows 7 And Taskbar?
Sep 5, 2011
At random times, the mouse becomes unresponsive to other windows. The pointer can be moved, and I can still use the keyboard to use the computer. If I click on a window, it becomes inactive. Also, if i put the pointer on the start icon, it doesnt glow. Also, sometimes the mouse won't highlight desktop icons. The problem can be fixed if I alt-tab to the desktop and use the keyboard to open a program that will trigger a UAC popup(Revo Uninstaller).

I have a dell latitude with windows 7. After a year of usage the mouse clicks suddenly stopped working. Left clicks stopped working all together, right click sometimes work, but most of time it does other things. I suspect it's some malware. I run avg, spybot and malwarebytes, which found nothing. Checked the mouse settings in control panel, and didn't fine anything strange.

I've installed Virtual PC Beta on Windows 7 and have installed Vista SP1 on it. When clicking with the mouse on the lower left corner (ie Start button) or top right corner (ie close button on maximized window) it does not work. Everywhere else mouse clicks comes through just like they should. Anyone else experiencing the same, or even better, has a solution?

In browser, middle mouse button opens link in new tab, but instead of one, it opens two of them, just like i would click the button twice. I'm using opera and a razer mouse. Fresh windows 7 install.

i have a windows 7 computer that i got second hand from a computer repair place. it's a new install, but not genuine apparently. all this computer is used for is surfing the net on a large monitor/watching netflix/hulu/Internet.so, had a few bsod problems with netflix and similar, but nothing big, until monday. on monday, it suddenly wouldn't take any input from the mouse after the first few clicks. sunday night it worked fine, the most recent change was an installation of dvd decrypter on friday. however, monday it will load up, allow me to click past the "not genuine" screen, and maybe click one or two more things, then any time i click above the taskbar, there is no response. the weirdness is that i can do anything from the taskbar. open/close new programs, access the windows menu, etc. but if i click an open window, it deselects it, like i had clicked an empty portion of desktop. this also occurs if i click an icon on the desktop. the keyboard works fine, and it's part of a wireless set.
i tried cold-booting it, and a new mouse, neither worked.finally, i did a system restore to about 3 days ago. this seemed to restore complete functionality. however, i just found out from my wife that its' exhibiting similar symptoms-- she will go to netflix and everything will work fine, until she got to the page where something was playing, at which point it wouldn't accept commands again.

I wanted to preserve all the features of my taskbar and just stop it from showing up when I hover the bottom of the screen with the mouse (activating it with the windows key instead)

How to disable automatic ALT button clicks in every application? Lets say if I have opened the MS word application - When kept idle or composing any matter automatically the control goes to "ALT" button which displays the File menu details. This happens on any application for example while watching a video or typing the emails. When I timed it, exactly every minute this automatic click happens. How to disable this?

Windows 7 ... just installed a new Logitech K759 Solar keyboard and am using an 'old' Logitech M705 mouse via one Unified receiver (obviously both are wireless)Frequently, and unexpectedly, a full-screen window moves (and size is changed) when the mouse is left-clicked (also seems to occur when the cursor is moved with the mouse). When this happens, the window can't be closed by clicking on the 'red X' (in upper left corner) - the window will arbitrarily change back to full-screen but I cannot type or click on anything. Right clicking (on an 'empty' area) seems to 'freeze' the window in full-screen mode and I can continue typing.There isn't any other wireless transmitter (wireless phone etc) nearby (plus have never had this problem before) so interference doesn't seem to be problem.

Neither of my hard drives work in normal windows with the gpu in. On a fresh reformat they work for a short while before starting to click and freeze up. On an older installation this freeze is instant, as soon as the desktop loads.It works as it should in safe mode leading me to believe that it may be a software problem but I haves no idea.The hard drives work as intended in normal windows without the GPU.I don't think it's my PSU as it's 750 watts. If it's software I have no idea where to begin.It may be worth mentioning my mobo (MSI z68 gd55 g3) was sent away to get a BIOS update for compatability with ivy bridge, but I have installed the drivers for the update.

i have a focusrite saffire pro 24 sound card that has been tested on windows xp (with a relatively old system : intel core 2 duo, 2gb ram etc) and it works perfectly fine.
i bought a new pc a few weeks ago (intel i5 -750 @ 2.66 ghz, 4gb ram) and i have installed windows 7 professional 32-bit on it. the sound card works with firewire (6-pin, no ac power needed). i have installed the latest update for windows 7, for the drivers of the sound card. it has been recognized and everything about it's connectivity is -almost- fine, but when i play a simple Internet video or a song on windows media player, it's highly possible that the sound will click or pop.i e-mailed the company and for now they think it's a resource/conflict issue and they suggest that i optimize my os, such as enabling dma access to all ide channels, minimizing the use of cpu for visual enhancement (such as aero etc) and even shutting down my antivirus software and the windows firewall. also they asked from me to run a test for latency and send them back the results.

This system worked good on Windows Vista (32bit) with no audio problem or latency problem.
The system works great and faster than Vista on Windows 7 (32bit); but now with audio clicks,pops,latency problems and etc..
I'm using DPC latency program.. It shows red coloumn in every 3 or 4 secs. I tried to disable USB mouse, wireless etc.. but nothing happened. Also I updated all my drivers too.

When I type for a certain amount of time my computer acts like it has clicked off the screen and makes a beeping sound everytime I press a key until I click back on the screen? How can I fix this problem when it clicks off the screen as I'm typing if I type too many words it turns off my wifi.

Is there a method/hack or a 3rd-party program that allows the user to hide the taskbar by dragging its top border line downwards, after un-locking the taskbar? I remember I could do that under Win9x.

Almost new Inspiron 5720- Home Premium. i7 quad.
After installing three or four updates yesterday my laptop now clicks the optical drive a couple of times as I start any video or music file on the hard drive. Not a fatal flaw, but, very irritating just the same. Did a system restore to the morning before the updates- same behavior remains. Installed updates again, removed them one at a time, same thing. Restored to over a week ago, same behavior! What is up with this clicking. The files start and play immediately, no problem there, I'd just like the optical drive to mind it's own business. Movie discs play fine, burns stuff fine, just go to your corner and SHUT UP!

So about a month ago I restarted my computer and when it came back on all my programs pinned to my task bar and everything that was in my start menu was gone. From there I could not unlock the taskbar and nothing would pin in either the start menu or taskbar. I researched everywhere about it. I tried unlocking the taskbar in properties and registry with no luck. I finally found some posts about how my user profile was corrupt and from there I went on and made a new profile and copied everything and BOOM it all worked fine now. Well today it happened AGAIN! I restarted my computer and everything disappeared. So I think it is still a corrupt profile, but this is the second time it has happened.

I have a client that has laptop with windows 7 Pro. He had a faulty network card, so I have added a new, usb network card. That said, He can not pin anything to taskbar or start menu. I cleared both folders of shortcuts(567 of them) but to no avail. He also has no options under his desktop Context menu for New. He is also using a roaming profile, of which I will disable next time I am there. I have a feeling that might be the issue. I did scour the internet trying all the usual suggestions, but do vaguely remember something about an entry in cache somewhere that if it is too big or corrupt, it could cause this behavior. I am unable to find that post anywhere now.I mention the network card because one post had taskbar issues until he disabled his faulty network card. I have disabled the faulty network card.

I had a program installed called Spiral Knights, and I pinned the icon onto the taskbar so I could quickly launch it. When I was done playing it for good, I uninstalled it and it looked like the icon was off the taskbar, but it wasn't. When I tried to put another program onto the taskbar, called minecraft_server.jar, it pinned to the Spiral Knights icon, even though SK isn't installed anymore. Wherever I try to put the minecraft_server.jar onto the taskbar, the SK program is still there, and it says if I want to pin the minecraft_server.jar onto SK.

My computer qwill freeze for a few seconds followed by system lag which seems to get worse (freezing every few seconds/taking 2 seconds to recognise a click etc.). If i reset my computer it resolves the issue but i was hoping you guys may be able to give me more insight as to what the issue may be.It nearly always happens when i am browsing in firefox. Have never had it happen to me during gaming etc. which is why i'm hesitant to believe it is to do with my GPU or it's drivers which are always kept up to date.i have included pics of the cursor and what processes were running at the time of the freeze/lag

Lately I have been having an annoying problem with my wireless mouse. For some reason the pointer will lag, and be very sluggish and jumpy. I've had this mouse on this computer for about a year and I've had no problem. Out of nowhere this problem is happening. I've tried re installing drivers with no luck. I tried uninstalling intellipoint and re-installing it, but when I tried I got the BSOD, and then it completely disabled my mouse and keyboard so I had to use wired peripherals to go in to safe mode and do a system restore. Now everything is working again, except my mouse is still jumpy.

I have a USB mouse which works fine when it is plugged in at boot time.
When I then (when Win7 is already up) plug the USB mouse out and 10 seconds later back in again then it is not working any more.
Another USB mouse on another Win7 computer does not have such problems.
