re: Active window maximize <--> restore Wednesday, July 28, 2010 at 4:26 pm Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Buzz13 (2 messages posted) No the notebook is not under warranty. Initialy I thought exactly this (mouse / keyboard) but it only happens with the Microsoft apps. It never occurs with any of the other apps I run such as MYOB, Safari, a range of Nokia software, Norton, PLC programming software, EPROM burning software etc. This is my main computer and I use it on site as a notebook & in my office & @ home with a large LCD monitor & wireless mouse & keyboard. I can't recall if it has ever happened when using the notebook alone or not. I rarely use IE in these circumstances. I suspect some sort of incompatibility between the mouse / keyboard / IE8 / Vista / perhaps a Windows Update. Note that this setup worked fine for more than a year before the problem arose. I know there must be a pattern to when / how it occurs but so far I can't see it. I'l have to start a log of what apps are open when it occurs.   Meanwhile, any thoughts or tests that could help gratefully appreciated.   Written in response to: re: Active window maximize <--> restore (MartinM: Tuesday, July 27, 2010 at 1:54 am) Responses to this message: re: Active window maximize <--> restore (MartinM: Thursday, July 29, 2010 at 4:28 am) re: Active window maximize <--> restore (Adam Bradley: Thursday, July 29, 2010 at 6:22 am) All messages in this thread [show all] Active window maximize <--> restore (Buzz13: Mon, Jul 26, 2010, 6:34 pm) re: Active window maximize <--> restore (MartinM: Tue, Jul 27, 2010, 1:54 am) re: Active window maximize <--> restore (Buzz13: Wed, Jul 28, 2010, 4:26 pm) re: Active window maximize <--> restore (MartinM: Thu, Jul 29, 2010, 4:28 am) re: Active window maximize <--> restore (Adam Bradley: Thu, Jul 29, 2010, 6:22 am) Reply or follow-up to this message Search this forum Start a new thread on a different subject Report abuse of the forum Return to the Windows Vista Discussion Forum
