Problems with new Microsoft Mouse - horribly unsmooth movement across the screen
Installed a new Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse. Keyboard works fine, however, the mouse feels like I'm pushing a wet noodle through a tight hole. It's cumbersome, to say the least and it's very difficult to select "buttons" when I'm taking online tests. The pointer moves across the screen fairly smooth, but when I try to hone in on a particular point, that's when it gives me heck. Also, it goes into an almost strobe-like appearance when I have layered multiple windows open and am trying to point in on a particular area - it becomes slightly erractic. Trying to play any type of games that require the use of the mouse is more than a challenge even though I have it set to fast, the response time is slow and again, the pointer doesn't want to go to the exact point on the screen w/o a challenge. I've played with the options under the control panel (switch from fast to slow, etc.) and nothing seems to work. The mouse model # is 1067 and it's Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 2000. (Wouldn't you know it was the most expensive at the store...) Help!1 person needs an answerI do too
