  Hi aloum,.

  (a) what kind of mouse you are using?

  (b) the left button of the mouse seems to be stuck or it does not meet the click? This only happens with certain applications?

  Step 1: Test the mouse on another computer or another mouse on the test computer

  To determine whether the mouse or the computer is defective, follow these steps:

  1. test the mouse in question on a system that works, you know. If the problem appears to follow the mouse, you may need to return or replace the mouse.

  2 test a mouse you know is working on the computer in question. If the problem seems to stay on the computer, then the problem is most likely related to the software.

  In regard to the battery not holding charge

  Battery problems are often associated with the battery itself. If you encounter this problem, contact your mobile PC manufacturer. If you purchased the battery separately from the notebook computer, contact the manufacturer of the battery.

  Hello

  Could be heat related - try using a small fan to blow into the air intakes to see if that helps.
  It is just like it loses power or stop it in the normal way?

  Remove ALL power and reinstall all the memory cards and cables (both ends where possible).
  in fact, remove and replace - don't do not just tight. Remove the dust bunnies and clean the
  air vents. Check that fans are working (before and after opening the case). When your laptop on all the
  You can do is to reinstall the memory and clean the vents (still may try to add a small fan as a
  test).

  This sounds like material so if the above does not help you then probably need help

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Screen resolution resizing when the lid is down

  Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron with a Radeon Mobility x 1400 e1505. Whenever I close the lid, the monitor is resized to 1680 x 1050 to 1024 x 768 (or something similar).

  Radeon does not support the video card more and when I run the installation of the catalyst he tells me to go to the manufacturing site (Dell). It is an old laptop and driver carried out since 2006 was last updated.

  I use currently 3rd party drivers (Omega Drivers 4.8) and it's a change to catalyst 7.x drivers. However, the person behind the Omega Drivers updates no more for personal reasons.

  You know the solutions to this problem?

• My computer turns off when I try to burn a DVD with Windows DVD Maker__

  My computer turns off if I try to burn a DVD with Windows DVD Maker.  It was working fine and now it will not get past a certain percentage without stop.  What can I do?

  Hello Timbay1,

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

  What has changed in your environment, as it was working before and now does not work? Have you installed any new software or updates?
  It can be 3rd party software created a conflict with your codecs and you need to re - register.

  You could check and see if you have compatible Codecs installed in Windows Vista.
  or you can try to use the codec for Vista Codec Pack - pack

  There are other 3rd party codecs but I can't guarantee that they will work with Windows Vista.

  Please answer back with an update.

• Computer turns off when I put it in sleep mode

  When I go to the screen to close and put my computer into sleep mode, it stops completely

  Hello

  1 how long have you been faced with this problem?
  2. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?

  Check if the problem persists in the clean boot state.

  From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

  Reference:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  1. click on start and then click Run.
  2. type msconfig and click OK.
  The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.
  3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.
  4. When prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

• Computer user connection laptop turns off when the lid is closed

  How can I configure my laptop to disconnect the current user (switch not only users) and force them to close all programs when the lid is closed, and then switch to sleep mode?

  There is no direct option for this, but you can create a batch file that has orders for logoff, then the command for the night and have that run the trigger of "Lock Workstation".

  Task Scheduler allows many triggers.  Type Task Scheduler in your Start menu, and then click New task on the right side to explore your options.

• Super screen sensitive like I can't turn off the laptop and hear a clicking noise when the lid is closed

  I am running Windows 7 on a computer Tablet laptop of Dell Latitude (it has a touch screen that is not removable, but it turns). My problem is that I can not shut down this computer and carry it from one place to the other without losing all my battery power: you can hear 'ping' when the lid is lowered. If I have to carry that I have to turn off completely, otherwise it will just keep producing this ping and use my battery. Everyone knows this?

  This ping me makes me believe that a key is pressed, perhaps due to a letter from the keyboard that is stuck or is bad, or possibly a defect of the product.

• Laptop shuts off and turns on when I close the lid

  Hi, I just bought a HP Pavilion 15-n253sv and I noticed that when I close the lid its turns off instead of getting in standby mode. Also when I stopped it, and then I close the lid it lights up. Its like the on off button. Is it a hardware problem that I must return the laptop? I checked out the settings and it is said that when the lid is closed it just goes to the standby mode. I have win 8.1.

  Hi Biliou,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  If I understand you correctly, your computer shuts down when you close the lid, and if it is turned off and you close the lid it lights.  I think you are right to think it's a hardware problem. You can contact our technical support at the 800-474-6836. If you do not live in the United States / Canada region, please click on the link to get help from your region number. Contact HP worldwide
