Is your laptop a Toshiba by any chance? I have that problem with mine too... I'm going to throw this thing out in traffic one of these days...

WOW how did you know that,it is a toshiba,lol.when i figure out the button that puts me back a few sentences i will rip it out and destroy it.I am new to having a lap top but this is driving me mad.

You know how when you have an internet window open and hit ctrl+ or ctrl- it'll increase or decrease the size of everything in the browser? If you so much as barely brush your palm across the trackpad on this POS laptop it'll do that and I cannot figure out why it does or how to stop it from happening. God I hate this thing.

Funny, Same story here and I have a Toshiba too!

Had the same problem with my toshiba when I first got it. I was able to fix it somewhat by adjusting the mouse settings in control panel.

So I guess the lesson here is to never buy a Toshiba laptop...

I get frusterated too, evertime I pick my nose it gets full again in a FEW MINUTES.

I believe it's the tap to click option that is driving you nuts, try turning it of by unchecking the box. Start-Control Panel-Mouse-Device Settings-Settings-Tapping

I have a Macbook Pro, my wife says I love it more than I love her, when I find out who told her I am gonna kick some a$$.

 

[Letterbox Mike]

I know this is a stupid question, but you been drinkin' Mosh?

 

[Mainframe]

Oh, yes, if you have tap click turned on, any laptop will make you crazy, you have to turn that off, It is off by default on mine & I turned it on, drove me nuts for 2 days, it's off now. You can't blame Toshiba for that.

 

[skyhigh]

My acer has the same problem.....and here i thought it was just me.

A usb mouse fixes the problem, but I guess that takes away some of the freedom of a laptop.

learn the features of your laptop when you first get it and turn off the stupid ones quickly! my toshiba had the same "features". quite annoying until they were "fixed". it was an awesome laptop until it was stolen.

Yes I can. I've had plenty of laptops with tap-click enabled without the problems this one has. With it enabled on any laptop, it's definitely a bit more sensitive, but if you so much as look at this one's trackpad in a way that displeases it you're screwed.

 

[shakey0818]

ty backspin i just cannged it and messed sumtin else up but ill fig it out im click happy,lol.If it works i will be gratefull to you for life.tysm

 

[shakey0818]

As far as going back in my sentences and tapping i thank you verry much. I hate to quote myself but
"If i would ever need anything to,from & about anything i would get it here at Signs 101." Tyvm for you help.
