Programs close by themselves when using mouse with Laptop

videobruce

When I hook up a optical mouse to a Laptop (Comtrash Presario 730) after a varible amount of time when using Opera V6 the browser closes all of a sudden. This is closing NOT crashing. What seems to be happening is the mouse cursor jumps to the upper right corner and performs a left click function before I even know it.

Increase multi-tasking performance on W2K?

Curley_Boy

I was wondering how I can improve multi-tasking performance in Windows 2000. I like to have a lot of applications open, and whilst the system remains stable, performance (and switching between tasks) drops when more than a few resource hogging programs are opened.

Sanchez

I tried to play Privateer2 but it requires VESA. I tried loading my old vvesa. com that I used before but it did not work. Is there some Win2k vesa driver or emulator for it that would get the game to work?.

Does anyone know how to get this card to work with games? Because in the compatibility list games like Diablo and Warcraft work on NT4 but on my system it doesn't. Are there any drivers or setups that can get this thing to work? The only game that I could run so far would be Quake III.
