    That is odd. I've never had that and I slip discs very often for my Asus.

    This happened to me, yesterday. My mouse wouldn't move. So I restarted my computer, it restarted the instaltion and it worked. I still don't know, why it didn't work that first time. Btw, I'm using a Dell XPS M1530. if that helps
