Solve : Eratic Mouse cursor? |
|
Answer» I am having trouble with run away mouse cursor. I have replaced the mouse with a new one. Has the previous mouse shown the same signs?yes problem existed with previous mouseIs this a laptop? Try disabeling the onboard mouse.Yes it is a laptop. Mouse is plugged into USB .. not a wireless mouse. ThanksHave you tried to DISABLE the onboard mouse, if there is any?No I havent. Not sure how to check for one. I am a user not a techie.. Is there a device that allows you to use your fingers to guide the mouse or a little stick in the center of your keyboard? Mouse acting erratically and/or is not moving properlyyes I have both. You have both of these devices? You can most likely disable them by doing the following: 1. Right click on My Computer 2. Properties 3. Hardware tab 4. Device Management 5. Right click on the onboard mice and select disable. Do not remove them as they will be redetected upon restart! See if this causes the erratic mouse behaviour to cease.Found mouse options in the controll panel. disabled pointing stick. left touch pad alone. applied new settings. Hope this works. I noticed when touching pointing stick it was only moving vertical. Would this indicate it wasnt working. Quote I noticed when touching pointing stick it It should move both horizontally and vertically, however, I have very little experience with laptops. Do remember that if you wish to use the accupointer and touchpad, you will need to re-enable them. If this did not resolve your problem, you may wish to scan for viruses, trojan horses and spyware.

I thought It was MESSING with my desktop remotely. Hopped on neighbors wireless. still same problem.Have you disabeled the touchpad and Accupointer?Can't disable them both at once. touchpad i left on.. I think maybe should try disabling touch pad instead. As it is sooo very HUMID. |
