Curses..

Hey,

Cursor trouble on my Mums compoota..

The cursor keeps 'snapping' back to the start button..at any given moment..no matter what you are doing..its very annoying...its always done it but i forget to ask...

I've been through the settings i can think of but don't know why this occurs..can you help me to stop it and just have a normal cursor..not a schizo one!!

Please,

:shrug:
 
dodgy mouse/ maybe spyware?

Quincy i think it has a subdural hematoma?!! (you aint Jack Kluggman are ya??)

Ahem..sorry..uh..no, as far as i know its done it from new..and i keep it as clean as i can for her.

I'm sure there's a setting where you get the cursor to snap to links and such..i fell sure its somat like this..but just cant find the little tyke!!!

control panel-mouse-pointer options-snap to default!!

You could also try playing with the accelerate speeds in the mouse options and the smooth scrolling!!

Or get her an optical or laser mouse for birthday- xmas or other assorted anniversary

Alright smart alec..or smart Andy!!

Dang it..i thought i'd looked evrywhere..man, i even a look in the old shed..but still no joy!!

It already is an optical..but 10/10 for makin me laugh with the 'assorted anniversary' comment!!

:laugh:

Cheers pal.
 
Oke dokey...

I looked up the settings...the 'snap to' box was already unchecked?!!! :hrmph:

It doesn't seem to snap to any links..its always the START button it heads for..i read bout HotKey (its a Sony VAIO) you think this is relevant?

Its more annoying than anything so if it could be resloved that'd be great..but no love lost if not..

:shrug:
 
Its not a laptop per se (or however its spelt?) But yeah..it does have a track pad too...though no sticky button!! lol...however, it can be turned off...so i'll do thet and see how she fares...

Mmm..been most helpful have you :laugh:
