Windows shuts down when I hold the left-click. Sunday, October 25, 2009 at 6:52 pm Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by els (6 messages posted) I have a problem where Windows XP shuts down without warning. I've noticed it happens when I use the lasso tool on Illustrator and when I use Windows Movie Maker. I think it has something to do with clicking and holding the mouse - that's what seems to trigger it. Any prolonged holding of the left-click seems to generate some kind of power surge, and then everything shuts down. Any reason why this would happen? Can I change the power settings to prevent this or am I screwed? Responses to this message: re: Windows shuts down when I hold the left-click.
