I turn on my computor, once i arrive at desk top page i cannot move the mouse/cursor. It seems to lock

Sometimes there's a mouse pic on one of your function keys to local/unlock pad. Hold the function key while tapping the f key once to unlock

what OS, XP? operating system? is it?
using only one mouse? the built in mouse pad or it and a plugin mouse at USB port? or external wireless mouse.
we cant see what you have there, nor what are are using now.

if the PC is not infected.
click control panel, the click mouse icon there, bingo change mouse actions.
or reload the HP mouse driver.

Have they been disabled?

Hi,

You have Scroll Lock on.

Look at the top of the keyboard for a key which says "Scr Lock" on it and press that key.

the Scroll lock will then be removed allowing you to use the mouse cursor properly.


Regards.

Your Ctrl Button is continously being pressed that is why this is happening. You can restore the page by pressing both Ctrl + Upper Arrow in case to increase the size and for reducing the size press CTRL+Down Arrow

My laptop does this and so does my Linux computer.
An optical mouse needs to work on a featureless surface. My oak grain desk is not good.
A mouse pad with a picture is also bad.
Use a clear textured surface - like a one colour mouse pad...
Or
Try a new mouse - a cheap one will do for testing. The tail on your mouse may be breaking. (Yes, they do that...)

It seems to happen with optical mice on random pattern surfaces.

Hello
There is a small reset button on the bottom of the mouse push and hold it in for a couple seconds.

You would need to download and install software and drivers for mouse from the manufacturer to get a battery saving option.

bad mouse action , no other words need be said just that.
NO OP SYS STATED BY YOU< XP?
if the mouse is a wireless mouse, the battery is dead.
if the 1 mouse is wired it is bad.
if there are 2 mice connected , shut one down 2mice not allowed.

if the mouse pad is enabled then that is 2 mice if usb mouse used.
and not ever good to do that,
disable one of the mice. (easy no? rules)
i disable my LT here, , in control panel, device manager , mouse pad synaptic or what ever it is.
RC right click disable, it , I hate mice pads././/

I've had this happen to me by accident once and a while. if it's many months then possibly re-installing the touchpad drivers (or updating them) would help.
You can also adjust mouse settings in the control panel, found in my computer on the left side of the window.
Hope this helps a little, It does sound like the buttons are sticky. be sure to rate! :)
