    As your computer is a laptop I would say its probably your touchpad or the mouse stick in the middle of your keyboard that is faulty.

    nVidia TNT2 problem with plasma screen

    No problems mate. It might just be that 1600x900 is not properly supported by your TNT2 card. But I'm glad you got improved picture quality. I found the same problem on TFT screen's and the fact that some resolution looks utterly rubbish. Whereas an old style CRT seemed to cope better with the...

    eMachine Wxp pro (sp2) I'm a bit curious about this....

    When you install SP2 the splash screens is changed. As far as I'm aware they get changed to the same on both XP home and pro even using the same colours. So thats why it just says Windows Xp when you bootup. --- Make the best use of what is in your power, and take the rest as it happens.
