Mouse Pointer Problem, Win 8 Pro on Windpad 110

Today for some reason the built in mouse pointer, as well as when my finger touches the screen, the response is as if I'm clicking and dragging like when holding the left mouse button down on a standard mouse. It's rather annoying.
It's like the click-lock setting in the mouse settings is on and I can't shut it off 

I'm pretty sure this is the result of downloading Windows 8 updates. I've tried to do several system restores to points prior Christmas which was when the problem wasn't present. The sys restore continues to fail after rebooting the machine stating my virus protection is conflicting w/ the process, and suggesting I should perhaps turn it off. To no avail I keep getting the error message. I keep trying older points to restore from in hope it'll finally fix this squeaky little mouse

  • Mouse pointer Problem with CS3 and windows 7

    Upgraded
    to a new PC which has Windows 7(32bit) as an operating system. Installed my Photoshop CS3 and everything seems ok except when I magnify in the navagator panel. Once I zoom in my mouse pointer changes to 3 hands in the navigator panel. I powered up my old laptop which has Vista and my CS3
    then matched up the mouse settings in the control panel on the new PC. Used the same usb mouse on both PC's, the older Vista laptop worked fine but the windows 7 PC would get a tripple pointer in the navigation panel when I magnified. In the windows 7 laptop I then set the compatibility for Photoshop CS3 to run in XP mode but the problem did not clear. I see in FAQ for CS4 people have complained about tripple cursers in windows 7 but the replies indicated that the recommended fix did not work. Any help apreciated.
    Tom

    Thanks for your solution. I by changing the setting to 125% I am now able to use CS3 without tripple pointers.
    My eyesight is challenged so the decrease in text is a challenge but I can change the setting when I will use CS3 so I have a workarount.
    Thanks,

  • Win 8 Pro on Windpad 110W installation troubleshooting, PLEASE HELP

    Please bare w/ me for a moment to give you a little history. I've got a 110W w/ Win 8 RP on it. I bought the Windpad used. The previous owner put replacaed the original hard drive w/ a 120GB, and I've been quite pleased w/ its performance. Initially it came w/ the Win 8 CP, and I downloaded the upgraded RP a couple months ago when all my Metro Apss quit working on CP. Now I'd finally like to upgrade to Win 8 Pro and be finished. I'm also attempting to change from the 32-bit OS to the 64-bit. Here is where I encounter trouble. If I try to install it from w/in the current OS it detects I'm running 32-bit and halts the installation w/ an error message. Therefore I've put the 3.3GB Win 8 Pro 64-bit.iso file on a USB thumb drive and am attempting to boot it from outside the OS, and bypass its detection. (as a side note: the reason I want the 64-bit is because I'd like to upgrade the RAM to 8GB). Anyhow, the previous owner also installed a dual boot for the device called Android-x86 which i don't care to have anymore as it really hasn't been a practical Android experience. Unlike my Android experiences w/ other tablets and phones; I love Android. Furthermore this dual boot has partitioned the hard drive too and a few GBs are dedicated to the Android portion. I'd like to do away with this Android-x86 dual boot, but am not sure how. Finally, I hooked up a keyboard and the USB drive w/ Win 8 Pro to the USB port via a USB hub, and selected F11 when the tablet loaded up. I was able to select between loading the USB drive or the SSD. I chose the USB hoping it would start a fresh install of WIN 8 Pro 64-bit. It didn't it went to the next screen that always appears after the MSI boot-loader image; the Android-x86 screen where it defaults to boot windows if I don't select Android after 5 seconds. I just want to be done w/ the Android-x86, and get a clean install of Win 8 Pro only on my machine. Any tips, pointers, or guidance in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    I'm going to attempt to recover the system w/ the Win 7 DVD recovery discs that come w/ the MSI machine, since that version of Win 7 is 64-bit. I don't have an external DVD drive so I'm putting the files on my USB stick, and hoping that I can just install them on the Windpad from it. If Win 7 successfully installs, because it's already 64-bit, I can just upgrade over the internet w/o getting the Microsoft error message that I can't install a 64-bit OS on a 32-bit system. I hope this works!

  • Acrobat 9 flash/flex form scrolling and hand mouse pointer problems

    Hello.
    There is pdf file with embeded flash swf file inside. Main business logic has been implemented on flash: there are drop-down interactive menu and  navigation links.
    I've noticed 2 problems related to Acrobat (flash movie itself, standalone, works correctly):
    1. Scrolling over drop-down menu doesn't work: mouse wheel doesn't scroll content of drop-down form menu. So, I have to manually click on scroll bar.
    2. Hand mouse pointer over links losses "hand" icon. Hand icon shows for short period and then disappears but should be visible while mouse pointer is over a link.
    I managed to test these problems on Windows, MacOS with Acrobat Proffessional 9.0 and Acrobat Reader 9.1
    So, Is there any way to resolve these problems?
    Thanks in advance

    I'll take a look at these.  #1 is a known issue with Flash Player and is already being looked at, haven't heard about #2 though.

  • Rsd? shut down and mouse pointer problems

    hello there
    So, last week I went to the Carrefour Laval apple store to go check out my macbook because it had shut down 3 times in a row for no reason. The genius checked everthing out, ran some tests, and said everything was a-okay, that I might have simply just xperienced a random, insignificant crash. But, yesterday my computer shut down again as I was surfing the internet. I waited about 1 minute and powered it up again. everything seemed fine. so, about 1 hour ago, im checking my emails, when i go up to the toolbar to select a different website, when my mouse pointer seems to start disappearing on and off constantly. so i close my internet window and this weird loud and quick clicking sound comes from my computer. I open up another safari window, and the sound stops. and this happens over and over again as i open and close safari windows. then 10 minutes later, i am watching a dvd when my computer shuts down again! what is going on? Im so tired of this. i would like to have some advice before i go see the genius again. the thing is i cant reproduce the problem for him, it just happens randomly....
    please help me!

    Hi there I am having the same problem. I've been experiencing it often over the past month. First thing you should do is download the latest updates and make sure the firmware is updated which you can get from apple.ca/support. If that doesn't work then take it into a certified repari center that is authorized by Mac. In Toronto I go to CPUsed, Carbon or MacLibrary for repairs. My macbook is still under warranty so I am going to take it in. I am also going to extend my warranty for three years. These intels are great but it is the first year so expect problems.
    Cheers!

  • Mouse pointer problems in JRE 1.4.0

    Does anyone else see a problem with JRE 1.4.0 when using the 3D style mouse pointers in Windows 98? If I use the default 3d mouse pointers that came with Windows, the menus and other areas of the java GUIs draw a square any time you click on something. If I set my mouse pointer to the Windows Standard I do not see this problem.

    I am currently having this problem in plugin 1.3.1 which
    is what we will be implementing. We have to update the
    video drivers on a number of machines to correct the problem.
    I tried the 1.4.0 and it seemed to clear up but we won't use this version until a full general release is available.
    Another fix is to turn off the mouse shadow.
    We are running windows 2000.

  • J2EE Install Problems - Win XP Pro

    I have been trying to install J2EE 1.4 on my Win XP Pro machine. Each time the installing hangs on the "Selection Installation Directory" screen. I have tried to install to a different location (d:\usr\bin\Sun\AppServer) as well as just accept the default.
    The symptom is that you click "next" and the bottom row buttons stop interacting - the browse button still works as does the close button (allows me to close the installer nicely).
    I have looked in my %TEMP% directory and have found no log errors and don't see any other location where log files are stored or Java errors are being raised.
    I have tried this with the bundled installer as well as the individual AppServer installer - both have the same issue.
    Any help would be appreciated - I could not find a similar issue searching the forums or through google.
    Jeff

    This sounds like productregistry deadlock problem and you should be able to resolve it using the procedure described in this article:

  • Boot camp 2.1 problems, win xp pro sp3

    I have just bought a MBP, 17" and I am running Windows XP Pro, Service Pack 3.
    With the included boot camp driver everything except the function keys worked. Although the (fn+backspace = delete) worked, no other function keys worked (can't raise or lower the volume, increase/decrease britghness etc).
    With Boot Camp 2.1 this did not change BUT my audio suddenly stopped working. So I rolled back the drivers and the sound started working again.
    Also my Nvidia-tray icon disappeared along with some other icon I can't even remember.
    Boot Camp 2.1 was supposed to be an upgrade but only caused me problems and did not solve any problem I had.
    Cliff note: Boot Camp 2.1 sucked, my function keys still does not work and the audio crashed, along with some icons in the tray that disappeared.
    Anyone has the same problems? Any solutions?

    Thats weird, I just turned on my computer and the boot camp system icon appeared and also windows volume control icon. And now the function buttons are working! I am currently using my old drivers for the audio card but they work fine so I don't pla n on trying the new ones again.
    It seems like the boot camp .exe-file, KdbMgr.exe didn't load and when it suddenly load the keyboard started working better, now the background LED behind the keyboard is also working. Cool!

  • IdeaCentre Q190 Wifi problem, Win 7 Pro 32, 64b

    I bought a couple of Lenovo IdeaCentre Q190 and all have a problem with Wifi.
    The operating system is Windows 7 Professional SP1 32b and 64b.
    I downloaded the official drivers Realtek 8188EE Wifi for Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - Version: 2007.2.0720.2012.
    The installation went well, the computer is "hooked" on a wireless network, but it is not possible to open any web page. Various things I've tried (I do not even know what I tried everything) and some up and running and some not.
    Another situation is to work on a Wifi router when it is moved to a different location with different wifi router, then again will not work.
    Install any USB Wifi and it works perfectly.
    So far I have installed several thousand machines and never had a situation like this.

    hi MarkoG,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    Can you try to:
    1. Install version 2010.9.0906.2013 from station drivers:
    2. When done updating the drivers, open the wireless card properties under Device Manager > Network Adapters > Advanced Tab and set the following :
    Roaming Aggressiveness = High
    Transmit Power = Maximum
    Source driver
    Hope this helps

  • Satellite A100-920 - Audio driver problem - Win XP Pro

    Hello all,
    I am having an issue with an audio driver. I can't seem to find one that works anywhere, I have looked at multiple forums and the Toshiba website for suitable drivers with no success. I've basically hit a wall, so hopefully someone can provide a working solution. :)
    Audio device:
    Device: 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
    Manufacturer: Intel
    (Details retrieved using a Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD)
    Although a windows system labels it as "Realtek High Definition Audio Controller"? (I'm no expert with drivers, so maybe thats a stupid question...) :)
    The computer is a Toshiba Satellite A100-920 (PSAA9E) running Windows XP Professional.
    I have spent hours trying to solve this so I'm hoping this is the last mile. :) Thanks to anyone with any suggestions.
    Best regards,
    Alan

    Hi
    The sound driver is designed by Realtek!!!! So its a Realtek sound chip!
    You need the Realtek sound driver and you can find it on the Toshiba European driver page as well!
    You need also the SP3!
    But the point is that SP3 has to be installed before sound driver!!!
    If you have already installed the sound driver then remove it (uninstall).
    You should also access the device manger and should remove the sound card from the device list!
    Then reboot the notebook and after that install the Realtek sound driver again!!!

  • Firefox won't load get not responding then get; script error, script resource://modules/windows jumplists.jsm:540 no windows information listed for this problem( win 7 pro) reloaded firefox from scratch no difference.

    This started after a blue screen while on line watching a video on altnet.

    Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

  • Floating-point Error (Win XP Pro, Win XP Home, Win Server 2003)

    I have installed Safari on three machines. All three are have the same issue. When I load Safari, it comes up fine. If I wait for the initial page to load completely, I will get the error below. If I hit the X (stop) before the page loads completely, I get no error. I can type a new URL (www.google.com for example) and go to the new page. But, the same thing will happen if I wait for the entire page to load. This is happening on Windows XP Home, Windows XP Professional, and Windows Server 2003 Standard. All three machines have a similiar software configuration.
    All have the following installed:
    - Skype
    - Visual Studio 2005
    - SQL Server 2005 Client Tools
    - SonicWall VPN Client
    - uTorrent
    The error is:
    The exception Floating-point invalid operation.
    (0xc0000090) occurred in the application at location 0x6dc29f5c.
    Anyone have a work-around? Is this a known issue?

  • Defragment problem win 8 pro

    I opened windows 8 defragment program and did an analysis. it stated my drive was 11% fragmented so I let it run which it did for 3 hours. After I rebooted and everything worked as usual so I did another analysis on C drive and it still reads 11%.

    Defrag from Windows skips files which are larger than 64MB:
    In Windows XP, any file that is split into more than one piece is considered fragmented. Not so in Windows Vista if the fragments are large enough – the defragmentation algorithm was changed (from Windows XP) to ignore pieces of a file that are larger
    than 64MB. As a result, defrag in XP and defrag in Vista will report different amounts of fragmentation on a volume. So, which one is correct? Well, before the question can be answered we must understand why defrag in Vista was changed. In Vista, we analyzed
    the impact of defragmentation and determined that the most significant performance gains from defrag are when pieces of files are combined into sufficiently large chunks such that the impact of disk-seek latency is not significant relative to the latency associated
    with sequentially reading the file. This means that there is a point after which combining fragmented pieces of files has no discernible benefit.
    In fact, there are actually negative consequences of doing so. For example, for defrag to combine fragments that are 64MB or larger requires significant amounts of disk I/O, which is against the principle of minimizing I/O that we discussed earlier
    (since it decreases total available disk bandwidth for user initiated I/O), and puts more pressure on the system to find large, contiguous blocks of free space. Here is a scenario where a certainly amount of fragmentation of data is just fine – doing nothing
    to decrease this fragmentation turns out to be the right answer!

  • Problem installing Win XP Pro SP2 on 2008 Mac Pro running 10.6.8

    Okay, I have never setup or ran a bootcamp partition so I apologize in advance for my ignorance on the subject. I have been attempting to install win xp pro (SP2). I am using the Boot Camp Assistant  v3.0.4. I have created a 32GB FAT32 partition and at the point I click Continue Installation (with the XP Pro disc in the drive) the computer reboots to supposedly install.
    What happens instead is I get a revolving censorship/ban circle icon, folder with question mark and apple logo. It just continuously will flash between those 3 icons until I restart.
    Here's what I've tried...
    -removing all other drives. I'm attempting to install on the boot drive which is in bay 1.
    -removed all external devices only things plugged in are my usb keyboard and DVI monitor
    -deleting and recreating the partition
    -I have the xp pro cd in the top drive and the snow leopard cd in the bottom drive (both internal cd/dvd drives)
    Computer:
      Model Name:          Mac Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacPro2,1
      Processor Name:          Quad-Core Intel Xeon
      Processor Speed:          3 GHz
      Number Of Processors:          2
      Total Number Of Cores:          8
      L2 Cache (per processor):          8 MB
      Memory:          10 GB
      Bus Speed:          1.33 GHz
      Boot ROM Version:          MP21.007F.B06
      SMC Version (system):          1.15f3
    No matter what I try I am met with the same results. I have held down the option key and manually selected the windows xp cd. It seems to be booting but immediately turns off my DVI monitor which, well, makes it impossible for me to actually know what is happening. I do have a nvidia GeForce 8800 which only has two DVI ports off the back. I do have the adapter and an old VGA monitor I could pull out of the attic but would rather not unless that is my only option. Can someone in the community please point me in the right direction?
    Many, many, many thanks!
    Curtis
    OKC, OK

    Update: my problem was solved by getting my VGA monitor out of the attic. Once windows was done and I ran the setup.exe off the Snow Leopard CD, all of the drivers were updated to allow me to switch back over to my apple cinema display.
    Also, I did need to hold down the option key to select the windows CD to install...and again to select the windows partition to boot but so far everything is going well with Bootcamp 3.0.4 and XP SP2...other than it is windows.

  • HP Deskjet 712c Win 7 Home problem connecting to shared printer on Win XP Pro PC

    Hi,
    I am having a problem connecting to a shared printer on my home wireless network. The printer is HP Deskjet 712C. When I had Win XP on all my PCs, I could successfully share the printer from one PC and print to it from any PC. Worked just fine.
    However, now I have 2 PCs with Win 7 Home and 1 PC with Win XP Pro. The printer is physically connected to the Win XP box. I have confirmed, on that box, it is being shared. When I try to add the printer on a Win 7 box, I select network printer and get to the point where it needs the driver. It prompts for an INF file. I have no clue where to go from there. I have done the Windows Update thing for Win 7 to update the driver list in the OS. I did see on the Win XP box that there's a place where I can load various drivers to the network for different OSs. I'm guessing that's so the appropriate drivers for those OSs will be available when adding the shared printer in those OSs. Of course, Win Vista and Win 7 are not available there. Is there any way I can share the printer from my Win XP box to my Win 7 boxes?
    Also, I've tried physically connecting the printer to one of my Win 7 boxes to share it from there, but I have probems there just getting Win 7 to see the printer correctly. I'm using a Parallel - USB converter cable. When I plug it in, Win 7 sees the printer as a IEEE-1394 device instead of a printer. Even when I install the HP Deskjet 712C drivers in the OS driver list, and select the USB001 port, it tells me the printer is not plugged in, but I know it is.
    I would love to hear some ideas! Please help!
    Thanks
