    Have no idea what's going on here but hopefully someone can help me out.

    For some reason if I click on any icon with the left mouse button the icon/folder's properties window comes up. The right mouse click brings up the menu it usually would for a split second before disappearing again.

    If I click on the start button it flashes up for a split second and then disappears again.
    If I try to press the windows keybon the keyboard nothing happens. If I try to type anything the cursor just goes a bit mental and nothing happens. I plugged out every USB device including keyboard and mouse and tried to see of I could do anything with my waxom graphics tablet. The same thing is happening even with just that. Tried numerous restarts but still having the same issue. I literally can't do a thing with the computer right now.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Did you try a different keyboard? It is probably a stuck key that's causing your problem.

    Nah lads, was nothing to do with the keyboard. Even if I disconnected it completely I'd still have problems with the mouse and the wacom.

    I tried disconnecting and reconnecting each one individually to see if they'd work on their own but none did. It was like there was a key on my keyboard stuck down...but not.
    Weird.

    Anyway, I went ahead and formatted the hard drive because I couldn't figure it out and I'm an impatient feck. It needed it anyway.
