Is that Peter Griff from Wamsutta (Massachusetts)? ...Scott Jarvis

Thanks for your response, mothabored I originally set the trackball up for PS/2 but the port went bad and I had to convert it to Serial using an adapter. Could this be a motherboard problem? I had a USB port stop functioning as well.........

When I upgraded to an XP machine, I brought along a Belkin trackball, which seems to work fine for four hours or so and then suddenly confines its movements to one single horizontal line, and will not travel vertically. This is an extremely regular occurrence. The only way out is to reboot...

The program's name is "CodeStuff Starter" and I believe it works when used properly to manage the start-up tray, but you still have to know what it is that you're deleting or disabling- I didn't.

Can anyone give me a clue...
