now this

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

same thing happening with other mouse

 

[Hi-ASL]

Could be a mouse/touchpad conflict I reckon but I still can't work out how to resolve it.

It's nice to be nice.

It is.

 

[boskysquelch]

same thing happening with other mouse

is it another usb mouse?

 

[Hi-ASL]

hm, this mouse seems to be working better, but hard to tell. Other one works for a few minutes then starts fucking up, but so far .... spoke to soon,

c

I've tried three. It'll be fine for a while Minnie and then, a few days from now, it will probably start to seriously wibble, probably worse than the first one.

Good luck, though.

 

[boskysquelch]

......probably yeah Hi_Arsl is probably right probably. So don't bother doing anything that would probably be the right course of action probably.

If I were you Minnie I'd probably just start posting these sort of enquiries in General again then probably you'd get more help probably and more luck probably.

a round headed one.

It's taken me this long to get back. Millions of windows were opening and I couldn't shut them.

I decided to unplug everything and so far, so good. Don't know how long it'll last though

Ok I had another idea, but I won't waste your clearly very valuable time with it.

Seriously though, that post #24 had some pretty bad advice in it. For starters, the average PC user will recognise almost none of the processes running in Task Manager, even though they're likely to be benign, useful or critical.

suggestions?

 

[cesare]

The last time I had a load of windows opening uncontrollably, it was a virus. Can't remember if it affected what was going on with the mouse.

This might sound daft but have you tried putting new batteries in?

eta: forget that its corded isn't it? but thats exactly what mine does when the batteries are flat.

You could smash up your PC with a hammer and get a mac.

Just to answer this.

Windows will not allow you to close anything that is critical to windows running.

I could have said, open Taskmanager and just End Process tree on everything, til the only stuff you have left is System Critical processes.

It really wouldn't have made any difference, but that tact scares people, so I usually say close anything you don't recognise.

Been too long since I used Win2k.

Can you get to Device Manager, have a look under the last entry, should be Universal Serial Bus.

Just check that everything is ok, no Yellow or Red markers on any of them?

Also do you know if your USB port is 1.0 or 2.0? Will depend on how old the PC is. Might want to try updating them, see if that helps.

USB 2.0

 

[Dravinian]

USB 2.0

How many processes do you have running in Taskmanager right now?

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Yes it's last. No red or yellow there

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

How many processes do you have running in Taskmanager right now?

It lists lots of things. How do I know if they're running?

 

[boskysquelch]

er, a USB. That's the little flat thing isn't it?

Oh no, it's a round plug and a flat one fits into it

remove adaptor & mouse...then uninstall the PS/2 driver via Device Manager & reboot it...then reintroduce it.

what happens?

lulz to see you've got your DVD writer working.

 

[Dravinian]

It lists lots of things. How do I know if they're running?

If they appear on the list they are running, they may say 0 processing being used, but it means they are running in memory.

I just wondered how many you had.

To give you a comparison, I have 20 and that includes Firefox and my software Firewall.

this is a problem I encounter a lot when asked ot fix friends and families PC/Laptops. you get there, look on Taskmanager and they got 40 different things running.

The first thing I do is turn all that crap off, because it is more then likely one of htem causing the problem, once they are out of the way, if the problem persists, then you can move on, but until you turn anything that isn't neccessary off, you will struggle to narrow down what the problem is.

 

[boskysquelch]

you also need to run ccleaner to clean out the shit you left behind the last time you abortively attempted to install AVG...and stop installing random Toolbars you dunt use...infact get rid of them. Then run ccleaner again to get rid of them completely.
