You would know more than I do, Paul: But could it be just a video driver
issue? Or, does the mouse 'locking' have nothing to do with it? It's in a bad
way, anyway.

Hi,
First thing I'd do is backup anything important on that PC. Now you should
look at the possibility of the hard drive about to fail due to wear and
tear, boot virus attack or just viruses on the system. Is it windows 9x or
XP you have?. Next, the fan could be wearing out on the PC. If I were you I
would take it to a PC shop straight away.
Paul.

Hi PC doctors!
IN the last week or so, I am having problems with my computer.
The poor thing is stressed out!
OK how do I explain this one?!
Do you know the sound the computer makes when the keyboard or mouse is
locked? sort of a long clicking pressure sound. Did I explain that well! Wow
that was good! well I am getting that computer locking sound when computer
starts up. It comes when the windows lovely music has done its tune and when
Jaws has started up. It only lasts a few minutes. Then the process continues
of the desktop being launched and up comes the lovely anti-virus icon saying
'Control Centre'
when I press start windows key, I am unable to arrow up or down through the
menus. I do hear 'start menu'
To get in to any programme, I can only do so, by rooting jaws to PC and
arrowing to the required programme and hitting the left mouse button. Then I
am in.
I am able to read incoming emails for example and do word processing. but if
I make a mistake in a document if I hit the back space key it just says
blank, or space or some letter that I would have written a good bit up the
document.
I am unable to left or right arrow. Jaws doesn't speak. If I do control home
or control end I hear blank.
I can do a spell check fine. but when I am checking what I wrote in an email
I have to wait until it is in the outbox so that I can read it and correct
any errors.
I can read only so far with insert and down arrow. jaws starts repeating
itself and I hear the dong from windows.
I think that is it.
Sorry for the long email.
a
and hopefully some of you will have ideas for me.
OH: I did a complete scan and no infection has shown up.
Cheers,
Sabrina and her poor PC who has the flu or is on its last legs
