Sounds more like mouse problems. Do you have the mouse driver Sire mentioned and have you re-loaded it while waiting for new mouse?

Regards, /jw

ps: love your profile, gosh you look young!

lisa, try this clickstream...

start, settings, control panel, system, device manager.

view the dropdown menu in device manager. you'll see the mouse entry. look for a yellow exclamation mark on top of where it says mouse. the exclamation point denotes a device conflict. with the problems you've been describing, you should see a yellow exclamation mark.

then, regardless of whether there is an exclamation mark or not, left click the "+" to the left of the mouse icon. a new item will appear that further describes your mouse. highlight (click) that item, then click properties. on the general tab there's a device status window that says if the mouse is working properly. clicking the resources tab also has a conflicting device list.

click cancel to back all the way out of these windows when done.
