AI Thread Summary
A user is experiencing inconsistent scrolling issues in Windows Vista when using the vertical scroll bar. The problem occurs when the downward arrow is clicked and released, causing the screen to continue scrolling unexpectedly if the cursor is moved. This issue does not occur in Windows XP. Suggestions for a solution include checking if the user is on a laptop with a touchpad, as double tapping the center of the screen may help exit the 'scroll lock' mode.

i face this weird problem while scrolling in Vista.
It happens like this: suppose I am scrolling using the vertical scroll bar and clicking on the downward arrow on the scrollbar.Now just after releasing the button if i point my cursor on the screen , the screen moves down.But this doesn't happen always.I mean ,it seems to work perfectly fine one second and the other moment i feel like the scrolling is out of my control.My XP has no scrolling problems though.
Can you suggest a solution?
