Problem with MS Optical Mouse
 
Hello folks:

I have a Microsoft Standard wireless Optical Mouse. The problem is that it
right clicks by itself and if you hoover over an item, it will open that
item by itself sometimes.

I have updated the driver for it using Microsoft Software, and I have new
batteries but the problem persists.

I really hate to have to buy a new mouse so does anyone have any ideas on
what I can do to solve this problem?

Any ideas are appreciated...

Try someone else's mouse BEFORE you buy a new one.

I forgot to mention that this Intel Motherboard was made for a PS2 mouse but
I am using this Microsoft USB Wireless Mouse...

I don't think it makes a differance but I wanted to mention it.

Press the button on the bottom of the sending unit and on the bottom of
the mouse. That might get the devices to connect on a different
channel. This could help if the current channel is being influenced by
another device in proximity.

Problem with MS Optical Mouse
 

Is your mouse connected directly to your computer or do you have a
keyboard/mouse switchbox in between ? And/or is there anything else that
could possibly be interfering with the connection to your PC from the mouse
?

A couple of alternatives before buying a new mouse.

*1 Try an old fashioned Tethered ball mouse... and one that you know
works....
*2 Clean the mouse inside (which may invovle unscrewing it)
*3 Reinstall Windows.


BTW.. For Wireless Optical Mouse designers... how about an ON/OFF switch
please to save battery life!



Good luck!

Surely you don't mean that. A software auto-on (immediately when movement
sensed) and auto off (after a certain period of inactivity) is far superior.

I have one. It's made by Ntrust. There's a little switch to turn it off
on the bottom of the mouse.
