Keyboard and Mouse
Hi,
My computer seems to have a ghost inside it!!!!! Random Letters and other buttons are pushed without human contact also my mouse does not move but selects things when not even touched! sometimes I can't even close something because the mouse decides not to work properly! I have re-installed my keyboard and mouse about 6 times now and tried other keyboards and mice but keep getting the same response!!! Please suggest something to stop my hauntings!!!!! Thanks, Chris |

Chris,
Here is a Microsoft article about how to fix strange mouse behavior in Vista: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/932653/ Hopefully the article applies to your situation. I'll look around for something similar for the keyboard. Post back and tell everyone how this worked. -- freddy "Chris McKenna" wrote: Hi, My computer seems to have a ghost inside it!!!!!

Hi, Chris.
Do you have a microphone hooked up to your computer? Is it turned on? Voice recognition software often produces random mouse/keyboard input. Maybe YOU are the ghost! ;^} RC -- R. C.
