End user seeks advice, mouse drift ?
	2006-11-21 18:56:36

I have just started to cut the cable that connects the little eraser mouse to the motherboard in these units.  Lift the keyboard up, and you will see it running from the eraser mouse to the main connector. Just cut it near the mouse, and again near the main connector. Unless you want to use that instead of the touch-pad, of course.  If that is your prefrence for mouse control, you will have to replace the whole keyboard. Ardell Faul Computer Monitor Service Inc.

On some makes of the keyboard you can simply unstick the lead for the eraser-mouse from the connection that goes to the system board but as you noted no mouse that way but it's a good troubleshooting step. -----Original Message----- From: Laptop_Repairyahoogroups.com [mailto:Laptop_Repairyahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Ardell Faul Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 12:57 PM To: Laptop_Repairyahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Laptop_Repair] End user seeks advice, mouse drift ?
