The expensive optical mouse I used with my WinXP laptop
started jumping. I
detached it and used the touchpad for a while. No more
jumping. I then installed a new optical mouse (same
brand, same model), and it seems to be
fine.

Is there anything I can do to fix the old mouse?

Thank you!

Clean out the lint and hair that's inside the case but
in front of the LED sensor. Use a tweezers and bright
light.


Addendum: I followed your directions, and the mouse is
working just fine. Thank you again!

The wheel if you have one and any switches are also places for junk to get
in, especially the wheel.
