    Hi Guys,

    I have a Gen 1 CF18 (I think) that I'm rebuilding using Windows XP Home.

    I'm having issues with the Mouse, During the install the mouse starts 'bouncing' around the screen. It works fine in safe mode but boot Windows normally and it does this bouncing thing.

    I've tied installing the Panasonic drivers that I have, disabling the device etc....

    Thoughts?

    I bought this laptop to run programs that require XP. I tired Win Vista but it had the same problems.

    Model number is CF-18KHHZXBA

    Welcome to the Panasonic Toughbook Forum

    I am guessing you have GPS on your 18.

    Thanks for the guidance. I read a link that discussed the GPS reg hack not working.... that led me to look at some of the stuff I have down loaded and I found a couple of reg files that fixed the problem. cheers.
