| Guest | Set Single Click for Mouse - How Hi - just installed Vista. I can't figure out how to set the mouse to single click. Right now I have to double click the icons. Question: How do I change to single click? One other thing - I got a laugh that Microsoft is still using a default sound for Start Navigation. For heaven sakes - turn that off. LOL. Thanks Joe |

| Guest | Re: Set Single Click for Mouse - How I am having a bit of a problem using the Classic View: http://home.cfl.rr.com/jbmsbink/ControlPanel.jpg As you can see by the above screenshot - Classic View is opened, but when I click System, I get this: http://home.cfl.rr.com/jbmsbink/Systemscreenshot.jpg Clearly, that's the wrong panel. In fact, a number of panels open incorrectly. However, in the non-Classic view, I can access the correct panels, and I was able to change to single click.

| Guest | Re: Set Single Click for Mouse - How LOL Andre - no problem - you've been a big help. There's something not working right in the Control Panel Classic mode. I keep getting a pop-up saying my audio driver is the wrong one, although I downloaded the Vista Beta Driver from Realtek and Vista says it installed correctly. Those two problems might be related. BTW - where is Add/Remove programs?
