Moving Tasks ... dragging works on one computer and not the other

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I'm sure I'm doing something stupid, but I cannot drag tasks on the Gantt chart view one on of my computers. I click on a task and hold down the left mouse button, then move the mouse pointer. Instead of moving the task, it selects yet more rows.

This happens on one computer (laptop) but not on the other computer (desktop). Both running the same patched version of Vista and Project 2003 SP3. Both appear to have the same setup re scroll lock key, etc. Both have the same settings in Tools/Options/Schedule (autolink inserted or moved tasks checked off).

This is driving me nuts has I have a lot of "moving" to do this week, and plan to do it on the laptop!

Thanks!
