Windows Clicking Problem Hi, i'm new here. The main reason I joined is because my windows 7 has a serious clicking problem. I drew the line when I tried to open "advanced network sharing settings" from the control panel. I clicked and clicked but it wouldn't open. This same problem occurs with lots of other functions with the control panel and the OS in general. I am an administrator and I can assure you it is NOT a hardware problem. Any help regarding this "bug",perhaps, would be more than useful. | My System Specs |

To be up front, I do not know the cause, but if it were my computer the first thing that I would do is make a through anti virus scan and then download and scan with malwarebytes
You must update malware bytes before using and do the full scan, (about 90 minutes) http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell XPS 420 OS Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, clean install, upgrade disc CPU Intel Core2 processsor Q8200(2.33Ghz 1333FSB) Quad Core Tech Motherboard Dell Memory 6 gb Graphics Card ATI Radeon 256MB HD3650 Sound Card Intergrated 7.1 Channel Audio Monitor(s) Displays Dell SP2009W 20" Keyboard Dell USB Keyboard Mouse Dell Premium Optical USB Cooling Fan Hard Drives 640 GB Serial ATA Hard drive Internet Speed DSL 2.85 |

I've got norton, and i've done a full system scan before, the ones that take like 2 hours. I don't think its a virus. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit |

Hmmm. If it isn't a virus, maybe the click settings in the mouse control panel, like double click speed, may have changed accidentally? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Mellon Labs OS Win 7 Pro x64/Win Server 2008 R2 CPU Phenom II X4 955 BE @ 3400 Motherboard ASUS M4A79XTD EVO Memory 8 GB Mushkin Blackline DDR3-12800 @ 1600 7-7-7-20 Graphics Card 2 x Sapphire Radeon 1GB 4670 - Crossfire Sound Card VIA HD Audio on MB.

Does this happen in other programs (such as Word)? If not, it might be an issue with the OS, and you should open command prompt as admin (right click, run as admin) and type sfc /scannow to scan for errors.
If not, you could reinstall mouse (touchpad) drivers.

Word seems to be fine, probably because i only use the basics, but it happens with IE and Windows explorer. It seems to be all the microsoft products... | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit |

Hit start, type cmd. Right click (if you can) on it and choose Run as Admin. Then type sfc /scannow and see if it comes up with any errors.

It said:
Windows Resource Protectoin found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log
I tried opening that but it said access denied even though i'm an admin. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit |
