Computer guru's...need some mouse help!

[starkiller]

No, not Mickey...its my cordless mouse. Been lagging really bad when using the wheel to scroll down pages, herky-jerky like. If i use the scroll bar on the right hand side of the page, no problem. Yep, changed the battery..no difference...pc based....thoughts?

It's dirty, take it apart and clean it.

[starkiller]

Just pop it apart? No screws or anything...

[disneyjoe7]

No idea I don't wish you too kill it.

[zane77]

[Lasareath]

Yep, Very Cheap!

This the one I use: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826104321


Vest Mouse I ever owned!!!

I've got a Logitech mouse as well, but mine was only $15 on sale at BB. I refuse to buy any mouse other than Logitech at this point. I've tried several brands between work/home and nothing ever performs as flawlessly as the Logitech units do. It took me a while to find one that had a good size to it at a cheap price though. Seems all the budget ones are now made for people with hands the size of my 2 year old's.

I just picked up a sweet Microsoft wireless mouse on clearance at Office Depot for 10 bucks reg 40, you might look there.

[starkiller]

Hmm, so for someone like me who is computer challenged and doesn't know any better, its the mouse and not some kind of computer glitch or software glitch or something? Be a drag to spend the $ and find out the new mouse does the same thing

If it's IE that's causing the problem, try this:

Open IE
Press ALT on the keyboard
Click Tools
Click Internet Options
Click Advanced
Hunt down "Use smooth scrolling" and uncheck it.

Seems your tip worked, unchecked it and all seems well. But, to me, it doesn't make sense that unchecking it worked since you check the box to engage it...

I have one of those Logitech wireless keyboard & mouse packages. Some of the keyboard special keys stopped working, o I downloaded the newest firmware. Now the special keys work, but the mouse tracking speed restes itself every morning when we turn the PC on.

Change the settings with you being the administrator.

Glad it worked!

If you had bought a new mouse like everyone else was suggesting, without unchecking that box you'd still have the same problem. :P
