Howdy all

My touch pad has decided it has a mind and will of its own. Nothing I do or have asked other computer savy friends in my life can figure this one out.

Have disabled the touchpad every spot you can think of and it still pops up and rules my life. If I use the mouse it double or eight clicks so I get 8 pages open of an email, 3 home pages... etc.

If it's new, take it back to where you purchased it from and get your money back.

hint: Have you tried Add/Remove programs? Have you wiped the touchpad off with a damp (not wet) cloth? How do you know it's the touchpad? Have you tested it with another mouse?

If they claim it is new it is only new to you many others have had the delight of ownership also, heck it might be like that Cadillac that Johnny Cash sang about.

Also, they eventually wear out; twenty years old at least or even more?
