annoyance

For example, if I'm typing in Word, randomly the Word application/window will get unselected, as if I clicked something else. I won't be able to type anymore until I click the Word window again, it's pretty annoying too since I'm a fast typer. And this happens with everything. Games, browsers...

This is really annoying when playing a game as it causes the game to drop out and go back to the desktop. It also does it when watching a Youtube video on full screen or watching a video in Windows Media Player blocking the controls and being generally unsightly in both cases. I don't want the...

I purchased my current PC via Digital Storm (I'm not bashing, I love my PC other than this little annoyance it seemed to have shipped with) a couple of months ago, and ever since then, I've been having these random BSoD pop up. It first started happening after I shutdown my PC for the first...

I am trying to modify the attributes of a file (in this case the album title for a group of MP3 files in 1 folder). All I want to do is change one character. W7 (home premium 32bit) blanks out the whole box, and I have to type the all of the text again. Very annoying! XP it lets you...

ok, it's not the end of the world, just a real big annoyance. the playlist itself doesn't exist. i deleted it, emptied the recycle bin.... it is GONE. but WMP doesn't think so. it still shows up in the playlist pane. double clicking it does nothing. nor does "open file location" or...

Hey everyone. Ever since I installed TweakNow PowerPack 2010, whenever I put a disc in my DVD drive a shortcut to the disc appears on my desktop. It's really annoying. Will I have to remove TweakNow? Is there a way to disable this? Thanks in advance for any help. Yoshirocks

All of a sudden, I've got a very annoying problem where Windows no longer wants to connect to my wireless router via WiFi - UNLESS I change the router's encryption setting after each reboot. I attempt to connect to my router's hotspot and an error message says "Windows was unable to connect...
