I just bought this laptop used for $50 and when I plugged in an external ps/2 mouse (no usb ports) it registers however acts all crazy and moves randomly across the screen and even registers many right clicks. can anybody tell me what I can do to stop this?

The built in touch pad on the laptop still moves the mouse fine I just hate using them.

See if the mouse company offers drivers???

I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you peanut.

Had this exact problem a few years back.

Delete all the mouse drivers and let windows reinstall automatically.

Coming home from very lonely places, all of us go a little mad: whether from great personal success, or just an all-night drive, we are the sole survivors of a world no one else has ever seen.

Thanks Seawatch, that fixed it!

Glad that worked. It can drive you crazy.
