Ixl_Jj_Ixl Posted July 23, 2005 Author Share Posted July 23, 2005 it is a laser mouse, and it has something to do with my computer or something. i can unplug my mouse and it will still do it, and yes im using a laptop and i have a touchpad.

Eldrad_Ulthran Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Well, given your abysmal knowledge of computers...it isn't a good idea. You can turn it off in the BIOS, which can usually be accesed by pressing del when your computer starts up. If del doesnt work, your computer will probably tell you which key to hit when it posts. DON'T MESS AROUND WITH OTHER SETTINGS IN YOUR BIOS. YOU'LL PROBABLY MESS UP YOUR COMPUTER!!!111oneoneone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixl_Jj_Ixl Posted July 24, 2005 Author Share Posted July 24, 2005 well im not going to disable it bc ill take my laptop places and will need it. but like it almost seems if my comp is lagging or something. its not freezin up when its happenin but like itll start movin to the left and i can move the mouse to the right and after a second or two it will move to the right and vice versa. and i have to pick the mouse up off the pad and sit it back down, to "reset" it. someone please help, its very annoying.

kaibani Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Hmm, try doing a "disk cleanup". (right click on c:drive icon, and click properties. There will be a disk cleanup option.) Also, I think that if you disable the touchpad, only the mouse would work, and viseversa. You said that MSN was running as well. It's best not to use the beta version of msn, as lots of malicious programs can get in from that. Other than that...i guess you have to check that your video driver or graphics card is updated and patched. :? Sup noobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faux Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Make sure that your mousepad isn't shiny. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
