Hi Gav,

Thats an odd one!  

Couple of suggestions:

1)  Try turning the laptop upside down - although that may be difficult since the keyboard would now be upside down too!!  

2)  Try turning the mouse upside down - it could take some time getting used to moving left when you want to move something to the right ect but you may get used to it - eventually!!

3)  Create a new set of Mouse icons with the arrow pointing down instead of up. How you would go about loading the new mouse icon set into the computer I don't know but I am sure it could be done - somehow!!

Seriously though, I have not heard of anything like that before and I can imagine that it is very frustrating.  Sounds more like a Windows issue but beyond me I am afraid (unless any of the 3 suggestions above work!)

Hi Gav,

I think that, for some reason, the mice settings are changed
First question: does it happen only with TFP? or with all the programs in you computer?
Go to control panel --> mouse --> check the settings of your mice--> if you are not sure, let us know the brand and model of the mice and we'll try to help
