Tecra S1: Move the mouse pointer

From time to time my mouse pointer moves slowly upward or sideways. This happens once anchored and when not docked. In the latter case, I have an external mouse not attached.

This problem is really annoying, especially when you try to hit a box for example.

Any ideas?

See you soon

Hi seasack

If you use the pointer internal (the stick between GH and B), it is very common that the ca of pointer starts to move.
The reason is a bit technical but very understandable.
The mouse pointer works like a small joystick. Means that it is that you push forward, down, sideways and so on. However, please check the HOUSE or 0-position from time to time. When you're not, this would be a normal position of the HOUSE for us but it doesn't.
It is therefore possible that it may be wrong to believe that the position of the HOUSE is when you push forward.
If you stand and do not change the position of the needle for (I think) 2 separate controls the position of the HOUSE, this position will then be the new post HOME until the next time he finds another.
Actual cases is not that extreme, of course, but more normal cases are that you bend your finger on the pointer when for example reading something on the screen. The pointer can recognize as a small boost, and if you do go, then he could have a new position of the HOUSE and start to drift or it could be "heavy" feeling in a certain direction.
The solution? Simple! Leave it on for about 5 seconds and it will go away.

If you have this problem, even if your not even using the pointer, then I guess you have a hardware problem.
Try disabling the internal mouse by pressing FN + F9.

Good luck

  • the mouse pointer and cursor of dysfunction, cannot type, cannot connect to my user account?

    OK, I'm not sure how succinctly describe the problem since it is composed of so many things that have actually made my computer useless. I think it's a virus, but my virus scan did not come with something useful, so.

    Last night I watch Youtube videos and edit some pictures when I noticed that I had to type on the touch pad repeatedly until the computer responded. Then it stopped working completely (IE I could still move the mouse pointer, but couldn't click using the touch pad). I switched from windows to look for a solution on the internet, but when I clicked on the address bar of Google Chrome the cursor started ahead of his own, as someone has pressed the space bar - but I was not. This makes type impossible because there were huge gaps between each letter. I turned the computer off and back on (thanks, ICT courses), but the problem has not disappeared - only now, the mouse pointer disappeared sometimes still. It was getting late so I turned it off again and fell asleep.

    This morning as I began it upward there was noises Eman that makes it usually when I plug / unplug power. I tried to type in my password... and couldn't. The capslock wasn't on, I of course did not forget the password from one day to the next, but I kept receiving error messages and could not open a session. Even worse, when I tried to switch to an account that was not protected by Word, he kept jumping to the mine after maybe 3 seconds. I finally managed to click the icon of the second account and logged.

    The touchpad still don't click, when I open Chrome and clicked on the address bar he reacted as I clicked with the button right referring (so I couldn't type) and the mouse pointer always disappears randomly. I did a Norton quick scan and it came with 22 'risks' that he apparently 'fixed', but the problem has not yet disappeared. I would be v. grateful for a quick response, as the laptop is actually not mine, but my father (who keeps valuable most of his photographs on the hard drive).

    EDIT: I opened it in Mode without failure. the touchpad works now, but randomly on the keyboard keys have stopped working. Others come with a random combinations when I press on them, for example. "you" instead of "t", "p"] - when I press on «-» I can't even reinstall the keyboard drivers, because I can't type in my admin password.

    Also I do not know what topic to put this in so if it's wrong, please let me know!

  • Tecra M5: Moves the pointer of the mouse to the corners of the screen - cannot be moved

    Had this problem intermittently on my Tecra M5. The mouse pointer starts to crawl toward the edges/corners of the screen, then picks up speed quickly, he will bring back zipper in the corners and no amount of mouse movement. happens if I am rooted in a docking station or not. have tried on many mice with the same effect. Will and without explanation.

    Also tried various re-boots, changes to the pointer settings in Vista. Everyone knows this?

    One of my friends had a similar problem. Without a serious reason, the mouse pointer moved at the edge of the screen and it was not possible to control the mouse cursor.
    Finally, EPA has replaced the keyboard (possibly the touchpad too don t know exactly) and this fixed the strange cursor movements

    Then maybe you should contact the ASP in your country and ask for help.

    Best regards & good luck

  • The mouse pointer turns into a pointer to 'move' for no reason

    I have been using a new laptop for a few months now.  All of a sudden the mouse began to change at random from the standard windows arrow pointer, a pointer to 'move' - this is a pointer with 4 arrows pointing outward.

    The change seems to occur in any specific situation.  Sometimes the pointer turns back on its own, but usually I have to go into the control panel and accept the default settings of the mouse again to retrieve the pointer of the mouse to normal.  The change to the pointer 'move' is not in the Control Panel mouse - settings settings don't never change.

    I tried the following things:
    -change my settings of the mouse pointer to the user the dinosaur mouse pointer scheme, but the same problem occurs
    -Uninstall mouse drivers and let the PC to reinstall the driver automatically at startup

    I use a USB mouse.  When I use the laptop without the USB mouse, the problem actually gets worse.  In this case, the mouse pointer changes, and the mouse pointer freezes.  My main concern is the modification of the pointer, not the gel.

    Anyone seen this before?  In addition, no one knows how to fix this problem?

    Thank you.

    I ended up having my motherboard replaced on my laptop keyboard and Mouse touchpad.  Then only the problem was solved.

  • keyboard shortcuts do not change the mouse pointer, unless you move

    Hi guys...

    I've just updated my after effects (V13.1.0.111), and now every time I have put the cursor on the main window of the video and hit a hotkey to put in place a new tool, the mouse pointer does not change.  It changes only once you move the mouse.

    It's especially frustrating when you use the camera tools.  So when cycling through tools "move", "rotation" and "orientation" by pressing C, you can't see which tool is active, unless you continually move the mouse.

    Anyone else having this problem?

    See you soon

    Yes, it is a bug.

  • If I let the the mouse pointer over the taskbar, it freezes and I can't move.

    original title: freezing of funds...

    If I left click on the desktop and then click on the task bar when I got on my pc and leave the pointer from there in the taskbar until the next time I use my computer, it works well. If I let the pointer anywhere on the desktop when I finished work and the mouse pointer will freeze right where he is and I have to restart maually in order to release it. I never met this case in the 20 more years that I have been using a pc.

    I downloaded and ran spybot search and destroy program majorgeeks.com and it fixed my problem of gel. I don't know what he did to take care of it, but it does the trick.

  • Must move the mouse to display any video and some actions (update). My office windows 7 + FF v35.0

  • Escape the mouse pointer when you press the space bar

    My tecra has developed a problem where whenever I press the space bar, the mouse pointer out of the screen and the mobile guard in the upper right or sometimes down left for about 30 seconds then stops. happens in all weather conditions of applications that I use an optical mouse or the touchpad

    Hi Dave

    I had the same problem. Initially, the mouse was mad for 30 seconds, but shortly after, it was worse. I switched the keyboard and now everything is ok.

    Of course, the pointer of the mouse was defective. I'm sure that in your case the problem is the same.

    Good luck!

  • Can not see the mouse pointer

    Whenever I go to a program like WoW or Media Center, my mouse becomes invisible. I can always click on things and move it, I can't see the pointer! I saw a question asking pretty much the same thing, but it did not help me at all the... I also noticed that I can not only see the pointer when I fullscreen, however I can't get full screen sometimes.

    Hi Roxas72,

    Turn off the mouse pointer trails and check if you are able to access the mouse pointer in Windows media center.

    (a) open mouse by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking hardware, and then clicking the mouse

    (b) on the Pointer Options tab, uncheck 'Display pointer trails.

    (c) click on OK to save the settings.

    See the links below for the Wow game and try the steps.

  • Anyone know how to get the mouse pointer visible on the extended screen?

    Well, I finally managed to work on a way to project my w4 iconia on my TV.  So grateful to a number of people in the community for me that far, but every step seems to bring his own fresh problem to enter.  so a few questions:

    1. anyone who manages to get the iconia w4 to duplicate rather than extend?

    2 - does anyone know how I can control the expanded view - I have a mouse plugged into my iconia so that I can flip through the window I want to show it on the extended screen but the mouse pointer does not appear as visible on the display (TV) extended although it does not work but the shooting blind is very frustrating - okay, if I watch a movie as soon as it runs on the extended screen it does not much you must handle but assuming I want to just browse the internet and project that onto the extended screen, so it's a big problem.

    My apologies if these are stupid questions, I'm not very technically savvy.

    TYIA

    This seems odd. I always change an extra-large pointer and traces of mouse long but have never had a problem with the HDMI screens like that.

    What is the brand and model of your TV please? Maybe someone can duplicate.

    The PC is supposed to stop at the point were he said "It is now turn off your computer", but it hangs when the only thing on the screen is the default windows background and the mouse pointer. The mouse moves, but that's all. He is unresponsive to ctrl-alt-delete, or any other entry.

    This was reported 5 times, and in any case there's nothing in any log file which would tend to indicate where the problem is maybe.

    I guess we have a bad driver or device, but the problem only happens once all stops of 5-10, and only after the machine is turned on for a while.

    I just turned on the detailed status messages, but they did not stop the machine since.

    What I asked is: is it possible to get windows to connect to all events stop? I really want to know what he was doing when he stopped.  Can someone else think something I can look at, or a better way to debug this?

    Re: a suggestion on this new monitor to 'prove' is the source of the problem
    Disconnect it, connect a type non-ecran touch "ordinary".
    stop/restart in safe MODE, make sure that the old monitor is not appear in the Device Manager [what we used to call a ghost]
    If it IS, delete it & uninstall the sw provided with touch screen
    Reboot in normal mode
    Try a stop
    If you get the old orange it'S now SAFE, tell the seller about IT.

  • the mouse pointer popup

    Is there a way to disable the information boxes that appear whenever the mouse pointer is over a clickable element? For example: in internet explorer, my favorites... when I move the pointer of the mouse on a favorite, a small box will open with the information on the web page in it or as on the top of these pages where it says vista Assistant... If I point to him a box opens with 'Wizard of Vista' inside. Thank you

    Hi MDonaghy,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community newsgroups.

    To disable or enable Popups of ToolTip for items in Windows Vista, follow the steps below:

    1. in the start search box, type regedit

    2. scroll through HKEY_CURRENT_USER > software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Explorer > advanced

    3. you will see a list of entries. Locate ShowInfoTip FolderContentsInfoTip, StartButtonBalloonTip. Click on edit and set the dword value to 00000000 for each entry (to undo the same set value of 00000001)

    4. scroll HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Explorer > advanced

    5. Repeat step 3

    6. exit and reboot.

  • White screen at the Vista start up... only the mouse pointer, loading the driver freezes on crcdisk.sys loading, sfc/scannow does not work...

    Hello
    I don't know if this is the right place for this post... Sorry if it's not! I had looked online if anyone has the same problem to me, I found similar problems, but not the mine one (but if there is, can you please give me the link?).
    I have a DELL LATITUDE D830's with a dual boot (Ubuntu and Vista). When I run Vista I get the Windows logo and then a black screen with only the mouse pointer.
    Keyboard does not work. I can move the mouse, but can not select anything. No work of Ctr + Alt + Delete.
    I can just turn off the computer. At first I need to press F8 to choose something otherwise I get the black screen.
    If I reboot requesting the automatic restoration of the PC that he asks me the account and work only account is mine a (no administrator available). He then suggested to contact the administrator. I checked the error report and nothing is reported: the system works.
    I have no previous configuration to restore.
    I can access the command prompt. So I tried to write sfc/scannow. The answer is that to complete the process requires to restart the computer and make again sfc/scannow. I restart again, the new order, but I get the same answer...
    When I get the black screen, CPU is not disabled, because after a long time (about 2 hours) the computer restarts itself... If something happens even if I don't know what!

    The only thing I have not tried is to restore Vista from CD... I'm really afraid that this could remove the partition, or crash at startup I have, by removing access to Linux!

    I have a backup of all my files, so no matter if what I have to do to cancel my files, but what I really need is to keep Linux operating.

    So, if you have any suggestions... I'm not good at using the computer, so, please, a solution step by step be really appreciate it!
    Thank you very much

    Hi seymar,.

    I suggest that you run a tool to restart system on the computer and check if it works.

    If you have a Windows Vista installation disc, you need to restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc. If you do not restart your computer from the disk, the option to repair your computer will not appear.

    1. Insert the installation disc.
    2. restart your computer.
    Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the lock button, and then click restart.
    3. If you are prompted, Press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
    Note If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change the BIOS settingsfor your computer. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions. 4. choose your language settings, and then click Next.
    5. click on repair your computer.
    6. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
    7. in the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair.

    If the previous step fails then I suggest that you run CHKDSK on the computer to check if there are any errors on the hard drive.
    1. Insert the installation disc.
    2. restart your computer.
    Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the lock button, and then click restart.
    3. If you are prompted, Press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
    Note: If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change the BIOS settingsfor your computer. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.
    4. choose your language settings, and then click Next.
    5. click on repair your computer.
    6. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
    7. in the System Recovery Options menu, click on the command prompt and type chkdsk command-line /f and wait until the scan is complete and later to restart the computer and check what is happening.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/make-system-repairs-from-the-Windows-recovery-environment-from-Windows-Vista-inside-out Important: when running chkdsk on the drive hard if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data may be lost.

    I hope this helps!
