My first guess would be your mouse is fuxored. Is it a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer? If so, MS has had some trouble with many of these, and is offering to replace them for free. To see if this is the problem, try using a different mouse.

Man, I hate these lame holidays. Can anybody fire up TWS?

It's interesting to note that mktman favors Gateways over Dells and dislikes Intel mainboards. One wonders what he would think of an AMD chipset.

I've bought one box from IBM (wayyyyy back when - a 16 mhz PS/2 Model 70 - and it still runs, BTW) and one from Gateway (this POS died long ago). Since then, I've built all mine. I strongly encourage your BIL to study up and build his own system. The actual physical assembly is only slightly...
