Pull down menu won't go away.
« on: July 13, 2004, 05:48:49 PM »
Can anyone help me? I get a pull down menu that is like a right mouse click appearing on my screen all the time. I hit a key and it goes away but, reappears in a few seconds. I have formatted and restored to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks. :)

Are you sure that your left and mouse button have not been reversed whilst installing Windows?

Is your mouse malfunctioning? Did you try a different mouse to determine wheter the right mouse is stuck or broken?

Thanks for the rely. No, it is not the mouse. I have tried without the mouse attached and every other thing I could think of. I wonder if the keyboard is bad. Since it is a laptop it would be hard to check. :)
