Hi Pavel,
No, I cant tell you why, but I had a similar problem 6 months ago with
drag and drop, altho I never worked out when/how it first occurred. I sent
my computer (Toshiba laptop 430CDT, Win95) back to the vendor for expert
help, and the best the vendor experts could do over 2 days (after trying
various reinstallations) was
1) ascertain from Microsoft that Microsoft had heard of the problem
2) advice from Microsoft that they could not offer either explanation or
fix
3) reimage the disc, ie. do a total low-level disc reformat and
reinstallation of everything.
That does not answer your question , but be assured that , unlike Bill
Gates, I sympathize.
Regards,
Michael Asten
