The strange burn out looking area when I right click to open something on my desktop, just started happening. Well one time last week, then now.
Thank you for any answers, I have to Tink sit, so will be gone till tomorrow.
Do you use effects in Cursor FX on right click? Thinking possibly an effect gone bad? If so, try unloading Cursor FX.
...No I don't have Cursor FX.... I do use Windowblinds and Fences though!!!
sfc /scannow ...Wiz, if I do this, What am I looking for ?
My guess would be your Video Card is on it's way out. I believe I have only the *on board video card*. My pc has also been making a *moaning* sound for the last 2 weeks. ( No , it is not having sex)!! Well maybe they are not connected....anyway, thank you for all your ideas!!!
It's system file check. It will scan your system and look for corrupted Windows files. If you are using IObit Advanced System Care you can run a sfc scan from the Utilities/ Security tab. It's labeled System File Checker, same thing. You may need your OS install disc to repair any corrupted files it finds.
Thank you Wiz...but I discovered I do not have an OS disc....so it wouldn't do me any good to check the files.
I played a video and the video was not in sync with the sound, the video would start, then stop. And my screen went black , which it has also been doing when I am on skype ( I thought it was skype). Anyway, I have to go and Tink sit again.
I have to agree with Lantec then. That does sound more like a video card/driver problem or maybe overheating. Is your computer getting good ventilation?
But how does a graphics card distinguish between a left click and a right click?
Only the ones made in the hills can't.
I never thought of trying to left click on the desktop, my mistake. My pc guy has had it for all this time, couldn't find a problem. Yes, lots of ventilation, and I keep it very clean. So when it happens again, I will try to left click.
Thank you all very much!!!
