    Help with some issues please!
    « on: September 03, 2007, 07:06:21 AM »
    I have 2 problems with my computer when on the internet.

    1. When I'm on the internet using the arrow keys for something, like a game, they work like they normally would, but the page scrolls at the same time. It didn't used to do that. What's wrong?

    2.  None of my CTRL+ actions work (CTRL+F etc), and links that open a new page (leaving the site from which I clicked on still open, and the site it leads to open as well) don't work either. I don't know what else could be wrong here...

    Someone help please! This is starting to annoy me! Thanks to whoever can help!  ;D

    I use Windows XP and SP2.

        No. 1 - If your window has scroll bars in it then the arrow keys will make it scroll back and forth. Try maximising the window so it has no scroll bars in it.

              Try another keyboard...preferably a PS2 model.

                I will, though I have another computer with a different keybord and it's fine. It only just started doing this.
