I have a Dell XPS laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium that is nearly 1 year old - it has not been dropped or damaged in any way with liquid/food. My mouse (normally controlled by a touch pad) continues to move on its own to the bottom right hand corner to the show desktop toggle or the time/calendar area. It does this even when I am using the mouse.
Just did a fresh install and now when I install any software my mouse will immediately jump to "next" or "install" of that software pop up. How do I disable this feature?
Laptop works fine, BUT when i move it ( say, to put it on a table or set it down beside me ) the built in mouse / pointer, fails to work properly. When I scroll on the pad, it barely moves and frequently will only move on one axis. The only solution I have at the moment is to physically close the laptop up, immediately reopen it and log in again and all is well until i move it again.
I've been having the problem of mouse/touch pad being able to move but somehow, i just can't click on anything with my laptop a few days ago. It just feels like everything is in the "not responding" state when using the mouse and also the touch pad but then everything seems just fine when I use my keyboard to operate them. I've tried formatting my laptop myself and also sent it to a shop to do it, but nothing has changed And also, ever since this problem occur, my laptop seems to be slowing down no matter is shutting it down or running a program.
I have upgraded from 32 bit Windows 7 to 64 bit Windows 7, and I've been having problems with it. After a while, a program would freeze, then everything else would freeze. I have checked for viruses, chkdsk, sfc /scannow, memtest86+, defragged updated my graphics drivers, etc, until I finally re-installed. The problem still persists, but it's not as dominant, but it is preventing me from working properly. I feel it's kinda obvious that something is activating it (but still random) but I don't know what.
Here is my System info: System Info Utility version 1.0.0.2 OS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1, 64 bit Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz, Intel64 Family 6 Model 15 Stepping 11 Processor Count: 4 RAM: 4541 Mb Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti, 1024 Mb Hard Drives: C: Total - 1174695 MB, Free - 914805 MB; D: Total - 255999 MB, Free - 45742 MB; Motherboard: Dell Inc., 0TP406 Antivirus: Microsoft Security Essentials, Updated and Enabled
And I attached some log files from DxDiag and HijackThis at the bottom of this post.
I am using an HP Targus HD compliant mouse, but my touch pad (Synaptics V7.0 Touch Pad on PS2 port) is clearly the default pointer and if I try to remove it, I am left with no pointing devices at all! I have tried changing the USB connections for the mouse, but to no avail
I am having the weirdest problem with my computer. randomly my mouse will just stop opening programs/applications, i cannot click on anything in the taskbar etc. I have also tried a different mouse... & reformatted my computer back to the bare basics, reinstalled all the drivers to no avail. one minute i am playing BF3 fine or doing something else and down it goes... the only thing i can then do is reboot my system and go again.
After some time of working, my desktop doesn't respond to left/right mouse clicks. Also my desktop icons do not highlight when I pass over them. My OS is Windows 7 64bit
We have recently upgraded to Windows 7 at work.Our work have enabled access to my main work machine which is still on XP. I have just logged in, and for some reason the mouse icon was still visible on the machine and it was really annoying.So, here how I was connected:
MyLaptop (Windows7 Home) > Secure RDC onto Windows XP > RDC onto Windows 7 Pro
Before the last machine was upgraded, there was no extra mouse visible, but suddenly there is another mouse icon following my mouse icon.
Is there anyway this extra mouse icon can be removed?]
i run winows 7 and when i log in i can open the desktop icons for a while but then they stop working and the mouse wont open them or right click on them and neither can i right click on the open desktop as nothing happens.ive tried a system restore no good. when i restart hte computer its ok for a few minutes then the same problem again.
On a new start or reboot the mouse works on the desktop icons for a few minutes and then stops working; ie, it doesn't highlight or open any desktop icons.
I have tried a different mouse and the issue remains, so it is a software or system problem. I have windows 7 64 bit on an HP desktop with loads of hard drive and memory.
Recently my mouse, taskbar and desktop icons have disappeared from my screen. All it shows is the desktop wallpaper. I can boot into safe mode no problem.
I have a peculiar problem that seems to be related to Remote Desktop Connection in Windows 7.
I connect to my Windows 7 Enterprise x64 RTM box using a Remote Desktop Connection. When I return to the console session (I log on to the computer when I' in front of it again), the sound crackles and stutters and the mouse is jerky and non-responsive when I browse the Internet in Internet Explorer (or Firfox).
If I log off, or reboot, the problem goes away.
This problem occurs in any music player (in Windows Media Player, or Winamp), and it seems unrelated to the sound card, because I tried two different USB sound cards and heard the same problem. The problem occurs with any mouse also.
Here's what I've tried:
Installed the latest Realtek drivers a scan from PCPitstop indicates the drivers are up-to-date no change in the problem.
Tried disabling the NVIDIA Hi-def components in Device Manager no change in the problem.
Tried using 2 different external sound cards the problem is the same with any sound card or device.
Installed the Codec lite pack no change in the problem.
As per http://www.intel.com/technology/serialata/ahci.htm, I tried setting the Msahci value from 3 to 0 no change in the problem.
Disabled speaker effects (enhancements) no change in the problem.
Reset the BIOS to the factory default settings no change in the problem.
Tried using different apps to play music the problem occurs in all programs.
Ran Hijack this to make sure nothing questionable is running.
use Shell Ex View (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html) and disable all the "Groove" extensions.
Windows | Windows 7 | Hardware and Drivers How can I keep my cursor from making random movements on my computer w/o me touching it?It also move whatever webpage I'm on to the bottom of whatever page I'm on whether I want to or notI have lost letters I was typing when I clicked outside the monitor to make it stop moving. It's VERY annoying. So...I installed the Windowns 7 Home Premium update, changed mice (3 different ones now in three to four different usbs. I've run Norton, AVG, and House call and still have the problems.
i keep my taskbar at the bottom of the screen, using Windows 7 64b, HP fully updated. It seems like occasionally I'll click on a folder on the taskbar, maybe accidentally drag and right-click, (I can't replicate how exactly), but the whole taskbar will end up getting moved to the top of the screen. I though it's not suppose to be able to move if the taskbar is locked, does someone know if it's a bug or maybe an option I can checkbox somewhere to prevent it from moving ever in the future?
I need help to undertand if is possibile resolve this possible issue.I have an ACER Revo 3610r,Atom 530 processor, I'm using it with a wireless Enermax Aurora micro keyboard (with trackball included).I would use RDP from my work pc Unfortunately after I've taken the control from my work pc I'm not able to use the wireless keyboard on the host (Acer revo ) so I've to restart with the shutdown /R command.
i cant click on my desktop. i had downloaded something to do with dj-ing and then clicked on it. but it started loading.. (my mouse) and it hasnt loaded. i cant click on anything on my deskptop.
I have a Razor mouse ( the Lachesis) which has the ability to store profiles -of polling rates and DPI- and switch these profiles as it sees the desired program. I use two profiles. One is for the "Steam.exe" for my on-line gaming. When I launch Steam, the mouse sees the exe, and switches to this max polling/DPI profile. The other profile is the "Normal" profile which is set at a much slower, less twitchy speed. On XP, I was able to find the Windows "Explorer.exe" in CWindowsSystem32. I set this as my switching exe.and it caused the mouse to switch to the "Normal" profile when it saw the desktop. I can't find the "Explorer.exe" in System32 in Windows 7. Is there no such thing in Windows 7 (Enterprise) or is there another exe. I can use for the same purpose of switching, on seeing the desktop?
I play a game called starcraft 2, when playing this game you drag the mouse off the right side of the screen in order to move right. I just setup an extended desktop with one screen to the right of the primary.When playing this game and trying to move right the mouse just moves onto the extended screen. Is there a way to stop this happening so when I am running the game to lock the mouse into it so that it wont move across to the other screen (so I'd have to alt + tab the game to do so).
I generally like to have a clean desktop -- so I put my desktop icons in a familiar location. The trash can always goes in the bottom right, important computer shortcuts / folders in the top right, etc.. However, (I can't say how long its been happening) I use a lot of fullscreen applications (games, mostly), most of the time launched from Steam. When these games exit, my icons are randomly placed. I've noticed that they tend to be close to the top right of the screen extending to the middle of the top. They are not all lined up, there are often spaces in between them.
it had a clean install of windows 7 proffesonal.i started to personalise it.the next day 20 min in to the sesion it froze.mouse is stil movebl and the programs can be maximised and minimised but nothing els.my musik was stil running with no delay or errors. it stayed like that for about a min befor it tryed a reboot. when it rebooted it cudnt find the system disk. i have to manualy power of and on for it to work agein. and afther that it just ceep doing it. it happens with no waring and can even happen when im not there. it happens all fro 5 min to one houer.
really have never seen anything quite like this. When I boot up my PC and it gets to the desktop, a program window pops up and the mouse and keyboard will not work.Therefore, I cannot clear the program from the desktop or go anywhere to run scans or the like to see if the problem is virus related. When I go into safe mode, it does the same thing. I tried restoring to last known configuration with no System Restore shows no restore points. I can't do anything including get you information on my PC. I am running Windows 7 32 bit on a HP/Compaq DC 7600 C/PD 950. I am running Avast Anti-Virus Suite Pro. Regardless once on the desktop, I can not go anywhere. What the heck? Right now I am working on my laptop.
I have a newer HP laptop that I have been playing Spider Solitaire on frequently without problems for the past six months. This week, out of the blue, any card moves are taking 7-13 seconds to complete. I then tried regular Solitaire and it is having the same problem. This obviously makes playing these games impossible. These are the fixes I have tried so far:
1. Update graphics card driver - states I am using the most current driver.
2. Ran sfc /scannow to search for corrupted files - can was OK.
3. Tried turning games features off then back on in the control panel - no help.
When I click and drag on the title-bar of a window the window border moves to the new location then when I release the mouse the window springs into the re-located border.This has only started to happen after I changed the partition size of my c: drive. Obviously, some setting has been changed and I have no idea as to how to reset it.
