Try this to troubleshoot driver problems.
Note: This tip applies only to Windows XP Professional.
When you're troubleshooting a suspected device driver problem, you can find detailed information about specific drivers being used in a Windows XP system by going to Device Manager, selecting the device from the list, and drilling down to the device's properties sheet. Although this technique is fine when you're looking for information on one specific device driver, it's not very efficient when you're interested in information about a number of device drivers—it's just too time consuming.
To ease the task of gathering information on a number of device drivers, you can use a tool called Driver Query (Driverquery.exe). When you run this tool, it provides you with a detailed list of all the device drivers installed on a local system or on any system on a network—and using it is easy. Here's how:
1. Open a Command Prompt window.
2. Type Driverquery on the command line.
The results are displayed in a table format in the Command Prompt window. If you want to perform more detailed analysis, you can direct Driver Query to save the results in a CSV file so you can open them in a spreadsheet application, such as Excel. To do so, type the following on the command line:
Driverquery /v /fo csv > drivers.csv

It's not a problem with your computer, it's a problem with your mouse. You might want to try to get a new mouse -- especially if it is a wireless mouse, this happens much more often. Also, make sure that you use a mouse pad as this will help keep your mouse from doing that. Good luck! EDIT: Oh, and what the guy below this said is good. :)

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
