FS 2002 Pro - Instability

[Atrice Roberts]

My FS 2002 Pro edition has become very unstable. The flaps move up and down on its own. It cycles through the different camera views without my input; landing gear deploy and retract on their own. The aircraft checklist pop up frequently. It doesn't matter what aircraft I fly, this happens and its very annoying. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program. Check for virus, defrag the hard drive, yet nothing seems to help. Any ideas?
Thanks,
A. J. Roberts

Hi Atrice,

You don't have a joystick attached by any chance do you? If so, try disconnecting it and see if the problem persists.

Otherwise it sounds like someone spilt something on your keyboard.
