Occam’s Razor
Filed under: Blogging
Isn’t it funny how one can bang their heads for hours, and eventually find out that you’ve been a moron, and you should have just started checking in the simplest of places? I had a rather odd problem of my mouse instantly drifting over to the bottom left of the monitor, and randomly clicking things. Very odd in itself. So of course I used Ad-Aware, Search and Destroy, a bunch of virus scans, and found nothing.
So moving on, with and idea from GearGod, I started using a program to scan the processes (after carefully checking that there wasn’t any silly sounding processes, of course.) for win32 mouse calls. Nada.
Two hours later, and feeling rather insane after two hours of the mouse cursor running away -every second-, I casually peer at the tablet I have sitting beside me. Plugged in. I unplugged it.
Problem solved.
ARGH!
