MichaelSong Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Hi, I bought a Dell inspiron a couple of months ago , and since last week I have this problem: when the cursor is moved over links or buttons, it starts them automatically without pressing the enter button. This is very annoying , like mails are sent before finishing etc. , just by accidentely moving the cursor over the send button. Is this a hardware or software problem, can I fix it myself ? If hardware , what service can I expect from Dell , all I could do is hand over the pc to the shop where I bought it , it should be still under warranty.

JetsetBkk Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Google is your friend! I just found this: Start> In search box type Ease of access> Enter> Make the mouse easier to use> Under Make it easier to manage windows> Uncheck Activate a windows by hovering over it with the mouse Have a look here: http://www.sevenforums.com/general-discussion/134866-roll-over-effect.html Not sure if this is your problem, but it looks like it. What a wonderful new feature the guys at Mountain View have added. So useful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aarn Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Assuming you are using a mouse rather than the track pad, worth trying another mouse. They tend to die - at least they don't stink - after decent use. AA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichaelSong Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 I have the problem with both mouse and pad. The Activate a windows by hovering over it with the mouse was not checked , so I cheked it, just to see what happens, and the problem seems to be solved now !
