Mouse And Screenshot Error
Mar 18, 2008
I looked for this but found nothing. My mouse goes way off the side of the screen and when I take a screenshot there is extra space, almost like my vid card is set up for wide screen, but its not. I already have the newest drivers installed for my nvidia gfx 5500 and it is set to only one monitor. it also detects the cureent monitor and i think it should know its not a wide-screen. please help, this is really annoying. heres the screenshot, i can only see the main part of windows and not the extra part on the right.

i have a problem with taking a screen shot i recently did a destructive recovery and i think it got my configurations out of whack its a small problem actually there is two but ill start with what i think might be the simplest one before when i pressed Ctrl+Alt+prt scr to do a screenshot it would capture it as a bitmap and now after the recovery it captured on my clip board i think it simthing to do with thr registry how can i fix that. and the other problem is when coloring with paint the colors are wrong something wrong there.

I ran into a problem today with my XP system. While browsing the web, the graphics on my screen seemed to go crazy. There were all different colors of what appeared to be little tilde's (the character) on my screen. They generally were present where there had been a window that was open, and they would mostly be confined to the place of that window. e.g., if I opened the start menu and closed it there would be a patch of disfigured color in the rectangle where it was.
Anyway, I rebooted my system thinking that would fix it and saw a bunch of disfigured characters on my BIOS screen and while it booted in general (I included a screenshot of the character disfiguration at this point). It gets through to the Windows splash screen with the loading bar, and from there the screen goes black. The system and monitor are still on. I had the latest video drivers for my card.

I had a boot issue I couldn't fix so I took it to a shop. Now whenever I boot I get a system configuration tool popping up. Saying I can factory seal, extend grace period, ect. What should I do with this. FYI: The store did re-install windows.

I lose usage of my mouse when I reboot my Windows XP Home Edition SP3 after the following actions:
1. registry clean up with Cleaner
2. disabling of one or more unncessary service(s) from within services.msc
I also noticed that when I reboot one more time the mouse issue goes away, but it reappears at the next reboot and so on (it appears every two reboots...).Each time I have been able to reverse changes OK by coming back to the System Restore point I had created before the changes.

I am using the classic folder settings in XP and IE 6, single click to select, double to open, but even though I haven't changed that setting, folders are often, but not always, opening with a single click.
The problem comes when I am trying to select multiple folders for copying, using the control key. I can usually get 2 or 3 folders selected, and then it opens each one of the folders. All I want to do is select them, not open them I can only guess that somehow IE is reverting to the single click to open setting.I didn't have this problem when I started today, and all I've done is copy folders, burn to cd, then delete the folder and run Window Washer periodically.

i'm new to these forums. For the last week, i've been using an older HP Pavilon system, 933mhz with 512mb ram. My issue is this, Occasionally, when I turn on the machine, I can left click the background no problem, but if I try to click on the start menu, it's as if the left-click on my mouse doesn't work. I've found a remedy to this problem to be to alt-tab, even if no other programs are open at the time. If I alt-tab, i'm 99.9% of the time able to left click the menu bar. Now, this wouldn't be a major problem, however I have the same issue when I alt-tab through webpages, or if I alt-tab out of a computer game. Also, I play World of Warcraft, and every so often the same thing happens, however to anyone who may play the game- I am able to use the leftclick on the mainscreen, as in, to pan around my character, but if I attempt to open my bag slots, click on a monster or any of my skills, nothing happens. I've tried replacing my mouse, no good. I've tried differnt ram, same problem. I've tried a new hard drive, no good. I've FFR'd both hard drives, reinstalled windows from scratch, and STILL the problem is there. Does anyone have the slightest idea of what could be causing this?

I run dual monitor at work, which is actually consisting a laptop (secondary) and a 19" LCD monitor as primary. Is there a way to have different wallpaper on each? There's gotta be a way, but I don't think you can using built-in Windows stuff. maybe there's a prog out there that would let you? Right now if you apply a wallpaper, applies to both screens.

Starts/loads fine. Will run fine for days w/ I.E. open, O.E. open=no activity. Upon visiting different internet sites, using, after about 15+ minutes the pointer freezes/no error message/Cont-Alt-Delete provides nothing-can not shut down computer w/ button on CPU , must unplug/restart Several times I have been searching MS for downloads for I.E. -6 (Updates/patches/info) (as in my little mind this is problem) but C. freezes at that point as I click on a link.

I got a new computer and I have been having problems with my mouse. I have a simple optical wired mouse. During random times, my mouse click freezes, although my mouse can move and I can use the key board at this time, I cannot click or focus anything. To fix the problem I can control alt delete and exit the Task Manager, this fixes the problem.

using windows xp media edition. when I click on things on my screen my computor sometimes works ok but sometimes doulbe clicks or triple clicks and sometimes clicks up to five times by itself I don't understand why this happens. Is it possible I have some type of virus that is causing this multi-clicking of the mouse when I only click once. I did a full system scan with Norton and nothing is found.

Our server has a mouse that is stuck. We know why and it needs to be rebooted. BUT our admin doesn't want to reboot. So rather then argue about it I got a question for the group How do I mouse with a keyboard. I used to know how , it is a distance memory. Can you point to me a document or list of keystroke to work my way through this process? I only need to configure one app and turn it on as a service. Then the server can sit with no mouse my job would be done.
I need to go to:
start>programs>app>app>open
down arrow
double click
right click (to get context menu) this will let me start the service from the app
click
close
logoff

My Dell Dimension desktop is running Win XP Media. A few days ago the mouse simply stopped working and on a reboot it did not fix it. I was using a wireless keyboard and mouse and noticed the light was not coming on on the receiver/transmitter so thought that perhaps that might be the problem. At the time I did not have another keyboard with a usb plug, my childs pc had a ps2 keyboard and i do not have a ps2 port. So I used my childs pc and my wireless keyboard and mouse work perfectly on it, including my transmitter/receiver.
The problem is obviously not with the hardware since they do work on her pc. I did however purchase a new keyboard and mouse - usb this time. I get the same issue. The keyboard works fine as I am able to boot in safe mode, enter the set up etc and can move around in those screens. As soon as it hits the XP log in screen though I am screwed, the keyboard is useless and with no mouse I am unable to click on my user name to log in...............

My mouse lags, I think it does it on the desktop (not sure), but in games it easy to see. I set my max fps to 100 and then it lags when I move mouse around, but when I have 400 fps it doesn't lag! I have tried another mouse, updating all drivers (chipset, mb, GPU, mouse)

This one has got me completely stumped:I am running windows XP, and have not made any hardware changes recently The only recent software install was Kaspersky internet security 2010, over the top of the 2009 productShortly after that install, my PS/2 mouse stopped functioning - the red light on the mouse comes on, but the pointer does not move. I checked with a USB mouse, and with a USB graphics tablet- same story, no response. The USB devices were tried in the main USB slots and in a hub. They both work fine on another PC.I have started in safe mode, and deleted all HID devices. Windows then detects the mouse, but then reports (via device manager) that it cannot detect the hardware.

Last night, the right-click function on my optical mouse starting acting up, wouldn't work unless I pressed hard. As I was furiously right-clicking on the desktop to get it to work, all of the text backgrounds on the desktop icons turned from invisible to black. Oops, no problem, I thought, I'll restart and it'll return to normal. Nope. So I right-clicked (replaced the mouse with a PS2 model, works fine now) on the desktop, went to the Desktop tab, Customize, Web, and unchecked "Lock desktop items". The icons looked fine after that. More weirdness followed: when I went into hibernation, no problems (it stated "preparing to hibernate", etc.). But touch the mouse, and it returns to life as if in standby mode. All the power settings are normal for using hibernation. Please don't tell me to not use hibernation, I've always used it with no problems. No new or weird processes running in the background. What on earth could my idiotic right-clicking have done to my settings to result in these two problems? Oh yeah, I did update Windows a few hours before this, but the hibernate feature definitely worked prior to my problem. I'd hate to have to restore to the previous restore point since I'm on dialup and I hate updating Windows manually.

I'm using a Sony laptop and have an external screen attached. I've set up XP
to use both the external and built in laptop screen and also checked the
"Extend my Windows desktop on to this monitor". This all works ok with one
exception.
I've tried making the external monitor the primary display but this doesn't
help me either.
Is there a way I can tell XP that I want the mouse to move to secondary
display when I drag the it to the left hand side of my primary display?

I am experiencing a problem with the XP hibernation. The PC is resuming from hibernation with mouse and keyboard activity instead with the power baton. Almost like a standby mode.

I recently bought a wireless mouse for my PC, previously I had a wired mouse which plugged into a round green socket on the back of my base unit. The new mouse goes into a usb port. Whenever I try to launch my PC with the new mouse receiver plugged into the USB port my computer freezes up on a screen which says Acer. If I launch the PC without the receiver plugged in everything works fine and then I am able to plug it in and use the mouse.

My Dell laptop has been periodically going into this phase where the mouse pointer will fill w/ a moving band of colors. It's as though a rainbow is flowing through it. When in this phase, it does this about once every 5 seconds. So, to be clear, it stays in its normal arrow shape, but fills w/ moving color bands rather than the standard white.
