![]() I did solve the problem in the end, by going to the touchpad controller and turning off (unchecking) the feature often known as "tap to click". Neither Microsoft nor the manufacturer could help me turn this feature off, probably because it didn't exist. The mouse seemed to be clicking itself to select actions on a mouse-hover, which could be disastrous. However, I did run into it recently with a couple of netbooks running Windows XP, and a thin-and-light Windows 7 portable that I bought myself. I'd not run into the problem because, for decades, I've used Toshiba Portégé and IBM ThinkPad laptops with pointing sticks (TrackPoint, PointStick etc) instead of mousepads. To identify it as a fault, we really want to know the make and model of the mousepad, the version number of the software driver, and similar details. ![]() Typically people mention the brand of PC and the operating system, which makes the problem appear to be completely random and therefore beyond rational solution. ![]() This problem comes up quite often on the net, usually on PCs but sometimes on Macs, but almost never with any useful information.
