Switching between multiple open windows

I ran across an option to change how to switch between multiple open windows
on my desktop. It was an option to choose between hovering over a window or
clicking on it. Thinking that only having to hover over a window to switch
to it would save time, I selecting the option to hover... big mistake as it
just became a big pain in the a_ _ for me. Now I would like to change back
to one-clicking to change between viewed windows but can't remember or find
where the option is located. Any help will be appreciated.

Hardly a Media Center issue...

Try looking at the "Ease of Access Center" in Control Panel, then go to
"Make your mouse easier to use". Find "Activate a window by
hovering..." and uncheck it.

I do not know if this is what you found.

Start > Control Panel > Mouse

The above series of mouse clicks will open the Mouse control.
On the Button Tab, look at the bottom of the Window in the area labeled
Clicklock, there is a check box Turnon Clicklock, if this box is checked,
uncheck the box.

If the check mark is there you would also have the Settings Button.

I am using Windows XP Professional, Vista may be different.

ALT + TAB

As others have said this is not a Media Center issue. It should be posted to
the newsgroup for your OS.
