Minimizing screens with Vista

Windows Vista28
When on my laptop, I can click in the middle of the page and the whole window

will either close or minimize. This happens with any window or screen I have

open. It's getting to the point where I am ready to get rid of Vista. Can

someone please help? I don't know for sure if my description above is

reliable. Thanks in advance!!!

Re:Minimizing screens with Vista

I would guess you have some driver conflict in one of the Human Interface

devices (HID). Your mouse driver, touch pad, keyboard, or whatever.

What laptop do you have? Sounds like you have an Alps touchpad (or

similar), which can be configured to use the 'gestures' to scroll, close or

minimise windows. It's actually pretty cool once you get used to it, but if

it is too much for you, it can be disabled. Look in Mouse in Control Panel.
