Windows 7 64bit SP1

Hey everyone, I reinstalled this PC to a 64 bit edition of windows, now when I do a single click, the program will act as if I did a double click. Why might this be happening? I checked the folder options setting and it is set to double click. Any ideas?

I am guessing it is a desktop PC and not a laptop?

Is it a wired or wireless mouse?

First thing is check using another mouse.

Only happens on 1 mouse. I prefer to use this mouse though. Is it possibly a driver issue?

hmmm ...
the obvious first ...
when you changed the "folder/program options" did you tell it to use the settings on all folders/programs ?

Make sure that Control Panel\Folder Options\General\Click Items as follows\ is set to Double click. :)
