Can't access mouse in the control panel
When I installed windows 7 on my laptop i was no longer able to use the scroll bar. I tried to change the mouse settings in the control panel but received the error message "Windows cannot start this application because of a common dll error." Anyone know how I can fix this without reinstalling windows? Thanks

mt3418, I'd try running a System File Checker scan by entering "sfc /scannow" into a Command Prompt. This will identify and repair and corrupted or missing operating system files. If that doesn't work, you could try loading your Windows 7 install DVD while the computer is running to perform an "in-place upgrade," as if you were upgrading from Windows Vista - this, too, will re-install needed OS components, and sometimes works where SFC fails.-Alex
