A friend has a new Dell 1150 laptop. The mouse pad left button
automatically clicks as it hovers over a menu or button, frequently,
often within a second or two. When a dialog or window comes up, and as
the mouse hovers, it often gets answered automatically. Or maybe the
window just automatically gets minimized sometimes. Computer operation
becomes very frustrating this way.
Is this just a defective mouse pad button switch? Acts as if the switch
contacts must be touching much of the time, although mechanically it
feels about right. Does the laptop have to go back to Dell for repair
for this, or is there some setting or adjustment? The Mouse Control
Panel only has double click and cursor speed.
