Windows is interpreting your T-bolt as a mouse.
The T-bolt data is causing the jumping and selecting.
Unplug the T-bolt. Always boot without T-bolt connected.
Or
Add the following to your "Boot.ini" file.
The "x" stands for the COM port you are using.

Hello, Time Nutters--
I just installed Lady Heather on my Dell D-610
laptop. When I booted it up with the T-bolt
plugged into the serial port on the laptop,
it screwed up the pointer and touch-pad. The
pointer functions erratically and is generally
uncontrollable.
As I recall, this is a common problem when
plugging T-bolts into serial ports.
I know that there is a procedure to cure this
problem-- but I forgot what it is. Sometimes
I think I am getting senile and getting forgetful...
The laptop has Windows-7 Eternity OS on it but
I think the fix procedure is the same as Win-XP.
Can any Time-Nutters on the list help me out
with this...??
Many thanks!!
