    When I first boot, the mouse (cursor)works the way it should. As I open 2 or 3 or more windows, my resoursed drop to below 70%, and the cursor goes crazy. I may have 2 or more at the same time or they stop and go and cannot be controled my the mouse. I have 128 meg of RAM. Would more help in these situations? :confused:

    Hi joeskys,
    What version of Windows are you running?
    Did this just start happening lately?
    Have you run a recent and updated virus scan?

    Hi again joeskys:
    Maybe start with one of the free online virus scanners then? Just to eliminate the possibility?

    Grisoft
    Housecall
    Panda
    Symantec

    And for Trojans.....might I suggest:
    Tauscan
