    gigabyte m6800 is drifting up & left

    Thank you very much, sharknice: switching the USB port didn't make any difference but unplugging the mouse (even just lifting it off what I've been using as a mousepad - a printed dinner placemat) stops the drift in its tracks. I've got to find a different 'mousepad' and try that. Your...

    gigabyte m6800 is drifting up & left

    M'God! I've put all the [H]'ers asleep! I realize this isn't an exciting technical problem for almost all of you, but doesn't anyone know if this drifting problem can - or can't - be fixed? Haaalp!

    gigabyte m6800 is drifting up & left

    My 14-month old Gigabyte M6800 has taken to drifting in the direction the cursor arrow typically points in. My cursor arrow always points left and up and that's where it goes... kind of slowly, and it takes a few minutes to start but once it does it's inexorable. Whacking the mouse = No Joy...

    Not sure what to do here...

    I've had this happen to me also and it drives me nuts!!! It utterly baffles me that a seller would not use DC just to save a few pennies - of course they don't tell you they did not use delivery confirmation/tracking until ** AFTER ** they ship your stuff and it's too late to offer to pay for...

    Help me resolve this dispute. Opinions needed

    Couple of things bothering me here: #1. If the laptop ran long enough to install windows it surely ran for MORE THAN 3 MINUTES during the install without triggering the fan monitor shut-down. Something doesn't add up. #2. IMHO the time to make the important decision to keep or return was...

    Malwarebytes Pro 9.99 @ Newegg

    I bought two copies of MWB Pro from NewEgg and each came with a card inside that had both the I.D. *and* the 16-digit code to unlock the CD. Nothing mentioned about having to write in to MalwareBytes. I haven't tried to install it yet but with the information supplied in the box I don't...

    your moralistic post contributes absolutely zero to this thread and is basically thread-crapping. But that is just my opinion. I think a program that does things without permission is troublesome. I'm sure MSE is a fine program (I did run it, afterall) but it does things I didn't want done...

    I bought two copies; one for this lap-top and a copy for the i7 rig I'm trying to complete. They come in *cardboard boxes* and NewEgg's shipping dept. just tossed the two cardboard boxes into a bubble-lined envelope and shipped them. Can we spell "boxes arrived crushed-flat ?" ATM I'm...

    Malwarebytes Pro 9.99 @ Newegg

    It appeared to run fine on XP (and silently ate all my keygen's in the process) <sigh> it ran fine on XP/SP3 until I removed it in favor of another AV. The $9.99 deal at NewEgg is back up...at least for now.
