Nov 17, 2009I was in the middle of checking over my term paper and the mouse started to have a delay and if I moved the cursor slightly it would jump all over the page. Then I tried to delete a word with the keyboard and nothing happened. I turned off the computer and unplugged and plugged the mouse and keyboard back in and when the start up screen came up on windows xp to log in my mouse didn't move at all. Could any one explain what is going on? I would greatly appreciate it. I got to get my paper off that computer.

Dec 17, 2006I had a warning from kaspersky saying it had found and deleted a tojan.Ok, so it was gone, but since my keyboard and mouse just stop working when they feel like it.
the strange thing though is the mouse will still move around (just wont make any tooltips appear or click on anything) and the keyboard wont type yet the shortcuts will still work for eg ctrl+alt+del, the windows logo key and ctrl+shift+esc are the ones i tried so far and they all work, and bring the correct things up

View 2 Replies View RelatedStrange Highlighting Error With XP
Jan 26, 2007I have an intermittent problem that causes a left click on my mouse to highlight not only the item I'm trying to select but everything below the selected item. For instance, clicking on a link on a web page causes the whole page below the link to become selected as if I was selecting the whole area. This happens across all programs when it happens including Explorer, Outlook, or anything where a selection can be made which leads me to believe it is an XP problem. The only way to resolve the problem is to reboot. I'm running XP Pro SP2 on a 3.4 P4 with 1 Gig of memory. This is a fresh install of XP on a new SATA drive but the problem occurred before this install as well. I thought the new install would cure it.

Sep 13, 2007After my kids removed a program (Sims original) we have a problem with some of our windows program tabs staying highlighted. I am not sure if the SIMS had anything to do with it but I would like to get the tabs back to the way they were. It used to be if you hovered over a tab file name, it would highlight. If you clicked on it it would stay highlighted and then return to normal. Now it is highlighted as soon as the program opens, stays highlighted when you hover over it (instead of going back to normal when you move the mouse off it again) and all the tabs will end up highlighted and stay that way until a function is completed.

Nov 18, 2004Major virus infection on computer resulted in fdisk and reformat. I used Win 98SE to fdisk and reformat, as I couldn't for the life of me find a format on the Dell Operating reinstallation CD. (could be first mistake)
Used Win 98 SE startup diskette to start system w/CD rom support.
Navigated to D: Drive which containe the XP OS reinstallation. Navigated to I386 folder and typed WINNT to begin reinstalling files.
Start WIn XP setup and began copying files to HD.
Screen shows: The MS-DOS based portion of setup is complete. Setup will now restart you computer. After your computer restarts, WIN XP Setup will continue. Remove floppy, etc.
Computer restarts - did inspection of system, shows Win XP Setup, loading files (drivers, controllers, etc.)
Starting windows - Welcom to Setup:
1. Setup - press enter
2. Repair (using Repair Console)
3. Quite - F3
Pressed enter
Next message:
Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer. Make sure any hard disk drives are powered on and properly connected to your computer. This may involve running a mfg supplied diagnostics or setup program.
Setup cannot continue Press F3
System then attempts reboot, attempts installation again by booting from HD. Then error message:

Win XP Pro SP1
48x/24x/48x CD-RW Drive
SoundBlaster Live! w/ 5.1 support
I have looked on MS site for the error code and think I understand that the problem is either a hd controller device driver is not installing from the Dell Reinstallation CD and therefore stops the installation of the software. How I can possibly extract and install the driver setup may be looking for.

Using Without Mouse?
Mar 17, 2006Our 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
PC Not Recognizing Mouse
Jul 25, 2008My 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...............
Mouse Lag - Chipset - Mb - GPU

May 10, 2010This 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.

Windows XP Media Center
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.
Dual Monitors And The Mouse
Aug 31, 2005I'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?
