Hi All,
I'm no expert, but I would guess that if things work fine in 'saf
mode' (F8), then the problem is probably a driver or some program tha
is not started in 'safe mode'. If the problem is specific to one o
another program (I had a prob. similar to this in Corel Photo Paint)
try right click on the program file (or a shortcut), select properties
compatibility tab and check the 'disable desktop composition' box. If i
is a general problem, the first thing I would try is to reinstall th
mouse driver. I too have a dell xps420. Tried their tech suppor
(email). The answer I received after 3 weeks led me to believe the
didn't even read the email.
Just a thought. Hope it helps.
