Hello, I am going nuts here.

My window 7 Pro, 64 bit HP Probook 4520s keep loosing the active windows. i am in Word, outlook, IE, Chrome what ever and I type away and I loose the active page and I continue typing but am not in the window. This just started happening. i ran a Malware scan, no luck. I disabled my mouse pad and am just using a USB mouse and it still is not working.
Any other ideas? This is driving me bonkers!

Thanks
Matt

What is it like from Safe Mode? If the fault is not repeatable in Safe Mode try the clean boot procedure.

Have you tested with another user in Normal Mode?


You might find a few clues in these older articles?

Thanks, I found the process and killed it.
For me it was my skydrivelogin.exe from Galdinet.
