1- pic up screw driver\n2- open mouse\n3- reinsert the wheels to theri sockets. these wheels move with the ball and if they got loose, mouse behave like that.

computer freezes or the mouse just doesn't move the pointer?\n\nIf you have a ball type mouse you can take out the ball and clean the wheels it rolls on.

You have to change mouse setting, which is in control panel. Navigation path ==> Strart ==> Settings ==> Control Panel ==> Mouse ==> Double click and then setup as you like.

This is a hardware problem.  If the mouse wheel has lint, or other kind of thick dust, it will not work.  If this is what is happening, try using a pin to clear it.  If not, then the most likely explanation is that the mouse was banged or hit really hard, damaging or dislodgeing the receptor that monitors the wheel's movement.  In this case, you probably want to get another mouse.\n\nHope this Helps.\n----------------\nFrom,\nThe Realm of Goliath Web Design Team

Maybe looking at a sample mouse filter or mouse device driver in the Win32 DDK would help.

I think the problem is probably screen resolution. I know you said that you've tried adjusting your screen width, but maybe your monitor is too small for everything to fit on.\n\nYou see, in HTML (website programming), when you type something, and it reaches the end of a line, it jumps to the next. Likewise, if all the links can't fit on one line, one will jump to the next line.\n\nStill, it is strange that the link appears over a text box. Maybe it is something wrong with Yahoo's programming, but I doubt it. My searches are working fine.\n\nTry setting your text size by going to View -> Text size. Select a text smaller than the one currently selected. (This is for Internet Explorer)\n\nHope that could help...

Usually there is an adjustment for the driver that operates it. Check your Windows Control Panel to see if there is anything there referencing a mouse or pointing device.

Check if your keyboard's scroll keys are not malfunctioning, or check your mouse, your scroll key may be making very small movements, which is resulting in moving the pages. If both the devices are ok, then check if you dont have any malacious script running at your computer, which may be implanted intentionally by some website or some person who has used your PC

You probably need to adjust your mouse properties by going to Start > Control Panel and going to Mouse then go to the Buttons tab and there you should be able to adjust them.  My guess is the left click has been changed to open the right click options, if you don't want to manually fuss with changing it, you can just click the "Restore Defaults" button at the bottom and all should be as it was.\n\nSince your left click currently isn't working in order to open Mouse properties just left click on it (which is currently set as right click) and select Open.\n\nOkay, if you have been using System Restore (even if you haven't Windows puts in some restore points for you) you can try restoring your PC to an earlier time before you started having this problem.  If you recently updated the drivers that could very well be the problem (may not be but it could be) so either install the previous version of the driver or try using System Restore.  See if any of that works.

It would help to know if you're using a desktop with attached (plugged in) mouse or a laptop with a touch pad.  Also the make of your computer. I'm also not sure if the mouse problem happens only with Yahoo or with all other web site you go to.  So go ahead and open Yahoo.  While Yahoo is open and displayed on your screen,  try these things:\n1. Click start > control panel > mouse.  A dialog box called Mouse Properties should appear. Look for a tab called Hardware and click on the tab. It should tell you if the device is working properly and if it isn't, there should be a Troubleshooting button. Click on this and it will take you through some steps to try to isolate and fix the problem.\n2. If the troubleshooter says the mouse is working properly, you might also see some other tabs called Pointer, Pointer Options and Device Settings. Click on one tab at a time and try changing your settings for sensitivity, movement, etc.  Go to the Yahoo screen and see if the change(s) affect the mouse movement.\n3. If it's a plug-in mouse, does it have a removable ball? Remove and clean it with alcohol, and also clean the rollers. Give it a try. If that doesn't help, see if you can borrow another mouse. If that solves the problem you probably need a new mouse.\n\nHope some of this helps.\n\nplrr

This happens mainly due to your PC configuration i.e hardware, in particular the mouse not matching with the intended performance parameters. Go to control panel and fix your Mouse settings- check the speed - is it too much, or too less. Go for a Windows Xp or Linux with at least double RAM (256 Hz) when you go over Internet and also, work out with your ISP why the speed is slow. Quite often, a combination of slow speed, bad hardware and Anti-Spyware software give a dreadful surfing experience.

When your mouse veers off to the side and jitters there, that seems to me that your external mouse is conflicting with the mouse installed into your laptop there.\n\nIf you can, try disabling the mouse on your laptop and stictly use the external mouse.  Another options is to make sure that you're not touching the other mouse when you're using the external mouse (or verify that the internal mouse isn't stuck to the side or something).\n\nLastly, being this has happened to you with two different external mouse, try installing the manufacturer's drivers for the external mouse.  Yet since this has happened twice, this may not help at all.

It sounds like you're receiving interference.  Even with wired devices, this can happen.  But it's much more prone to occur with wireless.\n\nDo you have a wireless network that runs on the same frequency? Wireless internet? Or even possibly someone near you also with a wireless mouse.

it might be a mouse problem :-)\nI mean, if you have a roller-ball mouse, it could be that you need to open the bottom flap of the mouse and clean the rollers. It happens quite frequently.

Call Ghost Busters!  Seriously though, that happened to me when I was using a hard mouse pad.  Try using a softer one.  It could be that when you are typing that simple action is causing the mouse to move the slightest bit if the pad is a hard one or you are not using a mouse pad at all.
