jay Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 My mother in laws PC has a problem, when the mouse pointer is moved off a page on the screen it drops down to the taskbar, ie it minimises itself. How can I stop it doing this? Windows XP home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 I thought that this was normal. At the bottom of the screen mine disappears altogether, while at the top and sides it changes into an arrow. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raddy Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 Check the configuration that comes with the mouse drivers. There is usually an option of some kind to enable/disable that type of option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am reading forum just now and if I move the mouse pointer off the page ( that is not a maximised page) nothing happens, but on hers the page would minimise to taskbar!

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 So if it's not a mouse configuration problem, could it be an Accessibility feature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 'Accessibility' is an optional Windows component, with many features for various disabilities. Check Control Panel | Accessibility to see if the component is installed, and if any of its features are activated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
