I cnat control my mouse pointer, it seems to have a mind of it own. When I try to move it around it jumps all over the screen and the windows will start opening up vevry where. This had started after I switched from FAT 32 to NFTS. Could this be part of the problem? I made sure all the windows updates were updated, drivers and such. I removed programs I thought could be the problem. I just downloaded some Halloween stuff ( download.com ) for my kids and got rid of those thinking they were the problem. HELP!!!! Now I have to go see if I can get this posted without losing it. Oh ya, I also scanned my system for viruses using norton system works 2002 pro and a different viruse program called AVG. They both said I had no virus problem.

reinstall your mouse software, or use the intellisoft software/drivers from microsoft, works with most mice, click here to go to the download site

Well that was easy!!!!! Thanks, I can't beleive I didn't even think of that!!! DUH!!! Thanks again.

glad to have helped, been through many of these things with windows,and the personal confuser, and this is the place to look first for the answers. :)
