    so I let my cf-18 sit for about 90 days and now when I boot it, the mouse does that jumping thing. I had this problem before and did....

    "OK so I was having a problem with My mouse jumping all over the screen from the GPS and the serial ballpoint driver. the Panasonic Registry patch was not working for some reason so I had to let the mouse jump all over the screen and try to disable the serial ballpoint driver with the stylus. If you disable the GPS in the bios then the ballpoint driver will not show up so you can disable it. so it has to be done with the Mouse going crazy. I have found a better way around this and figured i would share.


    First boot into the bios and disable the GPS. Save the changes and boot into windows.

    Next follow these Steps:

    Right click My Computer
    Select Properties
    Select Advanced Tab
    Select Settings in Startup and Recovery
    Select Edit
    Add /NoSerialMouse (this is case sensitive) to the line that looks like:
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\XP="Windows XP" /fastdetect
    so that it now reads:
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\XP="Windows XP" /fastdetect/NoSerialMouse
    File - Save
    Exit
    Reboot
    Boot into bios and re-enable the GPS and save and exit."

    But this wont fix it now. What do I do? This really sucks. I dont have driver cds or the OS cd.

    Thanks!!!
