Nothing happens when I try to copy or paste something. It's not the keyboard's problem. I can't do any of my work without the clipboard. Do you have any idea?
If it's a windows machine - just reboot. I have this problem all the time with my windows box...the clipboard fills up all the time (I do a lot of copy+paste in my workflow), and there's no way to purge it that I know of.
you could try this free program: http://www.download.com/FreeRAM-XP-Pro/3000-2086_4-10516960.html?tag=lst-1 you can set the options to clear the clipboard memory everytime it frees up your PC's RAM.
oh, and if you use the clipboard a lot this might come in handy as well: http://www.download.com/M8-Free-Multi-Clipboard/3000-2384_4-10267618.html
Rebooting and edit>copy & paste doesn't work either. Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7.0 haven't fount anything. I'm installing Zone Alarm Firewall and Windows SP3 now. Thanks.
Eeeek! I had the same problem as well. So I thought I'd take a break and check the forums around. It's working now, and I did nothing to fix it.
lol That's weird. I don't think mine is a virus/spyware. I have Kaspersky and Zone Alarm Firewall. And I don't see anything new in Run>Msconfig>Startup. Thanks
Download this software, ShellExView (Freeware) : http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/shellexview/shellexview.html Then in the context menu, disable everything under it. Then enable it one by one to trace which one cause the error. Do let me know if you have any problem with it.
Hello. I found out what the problem was. I found my shoe laid on my old wireless keyboard in the closet. It was holding the 'Print Screen' key! The 'Print Screen' key was filling in the clipboard every second so I couldn't paste any text. It was ridiculous. I was even thinking about formatting the hard drive. lol Thanks everyone!
