Mouse and PC freezing

Hi all, my sis TooToby is having a strange problem..
shortly after booting, her mouse slowly tracks to the top center of her screen and then freezes, not just the mouse, the whole PC freezes, this problem started a few weeks ago, but was intermittent, now however, she can only navigate for a short time.

This sounds like a virus or trojan issue to me, she uses AVG and it's updated, shows clear, she also has updated spybot, also clear ! The PC is a Gateway 450MHZ Win 98SE... anyone have any ideas...Rhett (she would have posted herself, but her pc is freezing up to fast)

 

Rhett....
Have her try to start up in safe mode. Could be a driver problem.

She rebooted in safe-mode, worked fine, then rebooted after doing NO changes and windows found and reloaded mousedrivers..all appears well, ...I'll never live long enough to figure these things out ...Rhett

Guess it's solved...for now...

 

Just wanted to second the "thanks". So far, so good. If it happens again, I will be back, but think you solved it! Sure hope so!

 

It's Windows, Rhett ! Why even try

Glad to hear TT is back up and running somebody has to keep an eye on you
