    Wouldn't like to give a definite answer but should be fine, and you're very unlikely to break anything using other drivers anyway. If the laptop breaks hardware-wise then they probably won't check the hard drive anyway as they're focused on repairing machines quickly. Best of luck.

    I'll try and borrow a friend's mouse, as I don't have a spare for some odd reason. I'll try the driver / troubleshooter thing now, thanks for the advice!

    CandleJakk got a reaction from lookpuppy in Weird left click bug Win10   
    Hey all, got a really annoying issue. Basically, every 30 seconds or less my left click will stop working and I'll have have to right click somewhere on the screen (only works when clicking in an area where right clicking will bring up a menu) for me to be able to left click on things again. I can still left click on things inside each tab within the Chrome or whatever program I'm in, but I can't click on tabs to switch (even though I use ctrl+tab anyway, but it's still frustrating) between them or click on anything in this task bar (neither programs nor the clock/calendar, for example).
    Anyone else having this issue / anyone have a solution?
    Thanks!
     
    I'm willing to provide additional detail if anyone wants to know anything that could be causing the problem, so please ask if there's any detail I've left out because I really want to get this solved!

    The fans are served on bearings, you wont damage them lol. You can even spin them the other way if you wanted to.

    you are fine no need to remove parts
     
    Just do not spray air on the fans so they start to spin this can cause some damage

    You don't need to remove any parts but I would recommend removing easy to remove parts like the graphics card(s).
     
    You can do it inside.
     
    Spray in short bursts.

    CandleJakk reacted to Pyrotechnika in Cleaning my PC tomorrow...   
    It really is best to do it outside because you'd be surprised how much dust is really in there.
     
    You shouldn't have to remove anything at all.
     
    Make sure your computer is off, I typically unplug the power supply when working in them.
    Do not hold the can upside down and spray the organic fluid over your components.
    You don't have to put the straw right on the components, spray a few inches out.
    Spray in short bursts, it helps because a rapid decrease in pressure really lowers the temperature, does kinda 'blow' to hold after awhile.

    just don't hold the can upside down and do short bursts.

    Dont have to remove any parts, just open side panel and voila. Take a cloth and clean the fans, and maybe some other things like your drives. Do it with your window open.

    Nah just blow it out, but I can imagine if it's really dusty you might make a little mess.

    Hey man sorry for not replying yesterday, thanks for all your help, but  I got it fixed, I just realised I was doing something really dumb. I had a WiFi adapter plugged in so I could connect to the WiFi (duh) and forgot to remove it before plugging in the ethernet cable, so it was causing a raucous. Thanks for your help again, though!
