I got a feeling this is Windows 98 doing this, but since it only occurs in VFP 7.0, I thought I would ask here first. > >On a clients computer, sometimes late at night, working in VFP 7.0, all of a sudden, the disk drive starts working on something, and my mouse quits working properly. It's like the computer is using all it's resources to do someething on the diskdrive, and can't spare the time for the mouse. As I move the mouse, nothing happens on the screen, then after 2 seconds the cursor jumps to a new spot. I'm the only one in the office, the other computer on their peer to peer network is turned off. Rebooting the computer makes it go away, but it comes back faster the 2nd time. > >My first thought is some sort of cleanup with swaping of memory to diskdrive. Is there something in VFP 7.0 that automatically does something when memory gets full? > >Or some other idea? > >TIA
Have you updated your virus software and scanned for any viruses? Or maybe your anti-virus software itself is scheduled to do an auto scan?
