Help! screen keeps scrolling......

[laughing cow]

I'm having a problem with my laptop. The screen keeps scrolling down to the bottom of the page, whatever I'm doing - browsing internet, trying to type etc.

Sometimes it will stop if I do something new - eg go to new internet page or open up another program. But even that's difficult when the page keeps scrolling! And if I'm in a Word document and trying to edit, the cursor keeps randomly jumping down the page, so my letters come out in all the wrong places!

Anything I can do, or should I just take it straight to the repair shop? :confused:

Edit- It's a Sony Vaio laptop, 3.5 years old, Windows XP

Check space bar or page down button isn't stuck.

They didn't seem to be, but I've poked at each button and it now seems to be working fine. Feel a bit dim for not thinking of it myself My
excuse is that I was feeling a bit dizzy after watching the constant scrolling

Hehehe!

I've done that before, sitting at my desk at work, and had a file ontop of the keyboard...wondering what the hell that noise was...turned out I had it resting on the space bar.
