| 332318 | 2005-03-09 19:04:00 | I have a laptop that I just reinstalled Windows XP Home on and I am seeing some strange behavior witht eh mouse. I find that if the mouse is over a selectable area on the screen (i.e. a link on a web page or a menu item in a dropdown menu) the selection is made without me clicking. I have searched the net for similar problems with solutions and have found neither. I have looked at all of my mouse options and nothing there seems to do the trick either. How do you turn off this "feature" and get the mouse to behave normally? :badpc: BTW: The laptop is a Gateway with an integrated touchpad. |

| 332319 | 2005-03-09 19:26:00 | I just tried to slow down the double-click speed to see if that will help. Does anyone know if there is a setting to detect the sensativity of the mouse click for a laptop? I was thinking that the weight of my wrists on the laptop keyboard may introduce a "false Click" to the contoler... That is why I slowed down the double-click speed. :confused: |

| 332320 | 2005-03-10 03:34:00 | Does the touchpad turn off automatically when you boot the computer with the mouse attached ? Have you tried another mouse ? , I've had failing ones do all kinds of odd things .... | KatiMike (242) | ||
