Hi
My mouse is scrolling all over the screen(on its own)
Can anyone advise me how to fix it?
I looked in Control Panel-mouse settings but nothing seems different
there.
TIA

Have you checked for a virus?

Also, if you have Microsoft Office installed with the Speech to Text tools
enabled, disable it.

You might want to check out the Dell Forums. I seem to remember something
about a keyboard problem. Tim

Thanks all---
I ended up going to the forums and found an issue of static electricity
that could affect the mouse.
So I unplugged my system and removed the battery and held the power
button for about 30 seconds---that did it!
