It's not unusual for mice to go bad - especially if it's more than a few years old. Next thing to try would be to re-install the drivers. Go to Start, Run, and type DEVMGMT.MSC to open Device Manager (in Win7 or Vista you can type it right into the search box). In Device Manager go to the cat

Hello Donk! Thanks for your message and apologize for the delay in reply. The upgrade to WIN7 worked, with a little frustration until all the drivers were loaded. It has been well worth the issues though, as Vista is finally history, and I have a much more stable and faster system! The WD2002

You didn't give us enough information to do anything but suggest that you check the power settings. If it responds to activity like that in my examples below, it is just the power settings. If it does not respond then we would need to talk about maintenance and hardware. Hours, sometimes days a

Thanks Donk :). I was kind of afraid of that when I saw that info about 4 Gigs+ being a lot of email. Can't do anything about it tonight, but probably tomorrow. I faintly remember, when I first started with Tbird, that there was a program that would automatically convert the emails in a fold
