So basically, I have several problems on this bucket of crap of a computer, that are just so inexplicably random, that I don't know what to do.
1) Computer clicks to somewhere else without me doing anything. For example, just as I was typing this the title of this thread, the stupid thing clicked into the main text window when I was half way through the thread.
Another example, I was just doing some coursework, typing in a text box in Word: After typing a few letters of a word, the cursor clicked back to the start of the text box by itself. And then then Word somehow randomly decided it had been told to close, so in a random click frenzy "Do you want to save changes: No" was somehow clicked, and I lost a whole bunch of stuff.
The mouse or pointer aren't moving in any of these circumstances.
2) Then the other problem: Sometimes, when I right click, the right click options list thing just flickers as if right click is repeatedly being pressed. (I don't think it is a faulty mouse, because I have tried with several mice).
The only way to remedy this problem is to either press the brake pedal on my G25 or to start up LFS.
I have scanned for viruses using Malware Bytes' Anti Malware, and nothing was found. Norton didn't pick up anything, although it _never_ does. I once had a virus causing havoc on my PC, and Norton told me that my PC was secure, with no problems. :doh:.
On a positive note, my Norton subscription runs out next month
Any ideas? I don't blame you if you are thinking WTF. Would I be best to travel to the geekyest depths of t'internet to find an answer, if one even exists?
I fail so much :sadbanana
