Left mouse click selects the button but does not execute the action of the button (for example close)

HI - this seems to be a problem with Windows rather than the mouse, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

First of all - I have a trackball M570. Works fine connected to another Windows 7 machine.

But on a single machine including windows 7... I can use the left click for most, but in some applications, when I click a button it not actually click the button. Yes, he selects the button but it does not perform the button action. I also see the issue in the boxes, I can't put a tick in the boxes. Or at least I just figured someway by combining fast random space bar presses and presses mouse, but it is obviously not right. Couldn't find anything useful in google, so I thought I would try here in hope!

Thank you for the pointers !

Cheers, Jim.

HI - Finally - I found a solution.

First of all - the following solution worked for me, but there are possible solutions mentioned on the thread I linked in my previous email.

The mouse is a Logitech wireless, with the SetPoint software installed. I also had a Microsoft wired keyboard and just in case that was the problem, I replaced it and - YES! All good new - in fact explains some other issues, I was less concerned. The problem with the keyboard was somehow screwing of the mouse.

Since then I have been reduced to a media volume on the keyboard button, no idea how to solve this problem, and the replacement keyboard was free, so just get rid of the old. Note: I could use the old keyboard when I downloaded the Microsoft Mouse and keyboard Center, installed and disabled the offending button.

Thank you, maybe my solution might help some people out there.

Jim.
