not sure right section but here goes

ok on my laptop the pointer starts blinking and when it does this you can not copy and paste and can not see the pointer. I can hit a button and it will some times stop blinking. I thought it was the touch pad so i connected a external mouse and still does the same thing. So now I went back to using the touch pad again. I thought maybe the laptop was running but the light that blinks when its busy is not blinking when the pointer is blinking. You can be on desk top with nothing open and it will just start blinking (disapearing) and you have to start hitting buttons and finally it will appear.

ok I fixed the blinking mouse problem but now I still can not copy and paste online I can copy and paste in word or note pad just not online

 

Did you try CTL + C for copy and CTL + V for paste?

 

I did try the ctl+c and ctl+v but no luck so I downloaded Mozilla thinking maybe internet explorer and still cant copy and paste. I looked at security settings and made sure copy, paste and drag was enabled I can drag all day long but not copy and paste. I also did the run box and typed in services.??? I dont remember the last part LOL. I found a web site and it said to go there and enable 3 services so I did but still no luck. I also just thought I fixed the pointer from blinking and disappearing all of the sudden for no reason. I can copy and paste every great once in a while as long as I keep hitting copy and paste over and over again
