My mouse

Well, sorry for bothering you with such stupid thread but my mouse is really starting to become freaking nuts and there's nothing more annoying than its freaking behaviour.

Sometimes I move it and it does nothing. But most of time I move it left and then it goes right. Other times I simply put my hands on it and it clicks on things and move randomly on the screen

Its quite absurd ! I wander if my mouse has been visiting the Madness forum while I'm not looking at it.

Serious now: Does anyone of you have experienced something like this ? Mice running crazy and selecting things you don't want them to and clicking on buttons you really don't want them to click... ?

Any ideas how I can fixe it ? Aside from cleaning it inside, which I have already done...

Again, sorry for bothering you with my crazy mouse... [!--emo&:blush:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/blush.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'blush.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Your mouse is possessed. Wave a dead black cat at it and the problem should be sorted. [!--emo&:p--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/tongue.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'tongue.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Give the old mouse freedom and capture a new one. With [!--emo&:cheese:--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/cheesy[1].gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'cheesy[1].gif\' /][!--endemo--] . That usually helps [!--emo&:)--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/smile.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'smile.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
He said he cleaned it, and I'm guessing he didn't pull apart an optical mouse to clean it as that would hardly do any good [!--emo&:p--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/tongue.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'tongue.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
It works with a mouse ball, forgot to say [!--emo&:D--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/biggrin.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'biggrin.gif\' /][!--endemo--]

I'm starting to think that maybe charlotte is right. Some of those weird little pieces inside of it, known also as eletronic components, must have gone nuts.... ah, maybe I can find a black cat !

Most of times this problem is ok, and sometimes even funny, but it can be quite annoying like the time I spent several minutes writting an e-mail to a cousin and when I was about to send it, the freaking little white creature run to the top left of the screen and hit the "back" button causing the total death of my e-mail...

Yea, it happens with the mouse on the student's room computer at the university but it is an optical mouse. My guess is that you have a program doing that, probably some sort of virus.
 
My mouse has been weird for so long it's normal. Quite a paradox there. Oh well, I should just put a cowbell beside it or something.
 
you could also learn to use your keyboard as it is faster than a mouse once you know how.
 
Yeah, the TAB button is particularly handy. You can navigate through links easily which is grimly necro. [!--emo&:)--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/smile.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'smile.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Try the mouse on another computer... if it doesn't work properly with it, buy a new one. If it works properly with it, buy a new computer [!--emo&:p--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/tongue.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'tongue.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Yeah, PCs can make you want to throw them out the window and buy a new one... so it can foul up so you break it and repeat the process [!--emo&:p--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/tongue.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'tongue.gif\' /][!--endemo--]
 
Ummm, have you been using a mouse-pad? It could solve your problems, especially if you have n optic mouse.First time I boght my mouse, it acted really strange. But i wasn't using a mouse-pad. After i put one under the mouse, it worked perfextly.


PS-If you're thinking of buying a new one, think about getting one with long warranty. Mine has 3 years warrany, and it caost me about 13 euros...
