Uncontrollable scrolling - not a mouse problem

G

Guest

I'm hoping someone can help. I've been reading posts about uncontrollable
scrolling problems, (where webpages and other applications scroll to the top
when trying to scroll down) but none of the solutions have worked for me. I
also have the problem where the cursor moves to the beginning of the sentence
when i try to type and unless i have the "end" button held down, i can type
forward.
I've had the entire keyboard replaced (i have a laptop) and i've also
disabled the built in mouse and tried using different mice that i have
plugged into the USB. So i'm not sure what to do next. Also tried the
sticky keys and click lock options as well as the smooth scrolling options.
Any other ideas??
Thanks!

It seems that your word processor has taken control of your computer. I
would uninstall it and see what happens.

Here's an interesting post:

Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, MS OfficeXP..... Remove the
'alternative input' component .... I think it's listed under Excel.

What your PC is trying to do is to type what it heard thru the microphone.

Thanks for responding. I have Office 2003, and didn't see the alternative
input,
but I did notice the text to speech is not installed.

I re-installed Office by clicking on "repair" in the add/remove programs,
and if I can ever find my CD I will uninstall it completely
then re-install and see what happens.

Of course, right now my computer isn't acting up, but I appreciate the
replies and
I'll let you know if those things solved the problem!
