I bought a new laptop and it has of course Windows 8 on it. It took me a couple of days to find my way around but and I’m doing well now. My problem is it keeps on flipping back and forth from laptop to menu for no reasons at ALL. Sometimes I am simply typing a text and then the font will start getting really big and I am not touching the ctrl key and +. The invisible menus appear when I don’t ask for it or my mouse is not running in the 4 corners of my screens or a game of solitary will start right in the middle of a task.
So my question is should my windows 8 be re-installed or these annoying behaviours are part of Windows 8 bugs everyone is talking about?
While I typed this short text on here my screen flipped 3 times back to menu !!

Windows 8 Weird Behavior?
Posted on April 4, 2013.
They’re not bugs. You need to get a manual about how Windows 8 works. Here’s some guides that you might find useful.http://www.hanselman.com/blog/TheMissing…http://marketing.dell.com/Global/FileLib…http://www.techradar.com/us/news/softwar…
Okay, so here’s what’s happening. The screen flip you’re triggering is called app switching and happens when you swipe in on the trackpad from the left edge. This one is really annoying to most users but it’s easy to disable.
Win + I to open the Settings charm > Change PC settings > General > Look for “When I swipe in from the left edge, switch directly to my most recent app” and switch to off. That’ll fix that one.
When you swipe from the right side of the trackpad in, you’ll bring up the Charms bar. When you make pinching gestures to zoom in and out. Here’s a whole list of other gestures you’ll want to learn.http://winsupersite.com/windows-8/window…
Hope that helps.

Remove the batteries, then when you replace them. It may reinstall it and correct the mouse problem. I use a MAC so can not help you with the WIN 8 – Call the store where you bought it and talk to their in-store techie.

I think windows 8 it’s self is weird. That is why I have
windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and that’s what I am
keeping.
I’d get Windows 7. Windows 8 is too buggy.
Hmmm…. I have that same problem. I am afraid it is a virus…
