What Happen When your Mouse Don't Work

[LunarWolf]

In light of recent event on what happen to me, I would like to share with you guys on how to work your mouse when is not responding. Maybe you can find this tip by using Google, nevertheless, I still wish to share with you.

Press

"Alt+Shift+Num LocK"

Press Enter.

Now you can use the Number pad or whatever you call it to move your mouse.

8 to move your mouse up
2 to move your mouse down
4 to move it left
6 to move it right
5 for left click
(double 5) for double click
I am not sure is - or + for right clcik
7 to move it diagonally up towards the left
9 to move it diagoanlly up towards the right
1 to move it diagonally down towards the left
3 to move it diagoanlly down towards the right

I know it is troublesome but it is useful.

Thats all.

That's mousekeys right?

Isn't it funny...

We can use our mouse instead of keyboard by windows's on-screen keyboard, and also we can use keyboard instead of mouse using this method...

Thanks for this info lunar...

good stuff. being so used to mouse never used these options in my life

[ChronicChaos]

I'll definitely have to remember this option. I can't count how many times this would have been useful rather than having to restart the compter.

also the button between windows key and control key on the right side of keyboard serves as a right click, in most cases.

After having a post on this thread fortunately I came across with similar situation at one of my relative computer but he were using Win98. I tried this combination of key and get failed I believe that it's for win2K and upper version only. But anyway for all the advance Windows OS user it's really great as we are very friendly facing this kind of problem.
