Mouse goes crazy

[DeanB]

Hi all,

Whenever I do anything CPUI-intensive (such as compile a program), the
mouse momentarily gets to be something like 1000 times too sensitive
and disappears off to the corner of a screen - hard to find sometimes
especially when it happens a lot. I've checked the driver for updates
and it is already up-to-date. Any other ideas? I've change the mouse
too. Both are MS USB optical mice.

Even though your mouse driver is up to date, it might pay to uninstall the
driver and re-install it to eliminate the possibility that the current
installation of the driver is corrupt.

If this is a laptop, you may have battery or supply board problems.
