My mouse scroll wheel stopped working.  What happened?

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

Make sure that you have admin privleges. It shouldnt matter, but its the only thing I can think of.\n\nYou may want to reload the mouse drivers. Open Control Panel and double click on Mouse. On the hardware tab, select properties, then select troubleshoot. Somewhere in there is a place to reload or update the drivers.

get a usb mouse that will fix it temp.  you might have to call the tech in to get that fixed.  Sounds like that pad has died for the click feature

Is it by any chance a laptop? If it is, then it is perfectly normal. Many laptops have problems with the onboard mouse due to the tight space around it on the inside of the case. \n\nTry unpluggin the mouse and plugging it back in. You may have to purchase another one.

Don't know if this'll work on an Apple, but I sometimes have that happen on a pc with optical mouse, mouses, mices.....\n\nIf it has a usb connection, simply unplugging and replugging gets it to work.\n\nWhen it's a a ps2 connection, I usually have to reboot.\n\nThese are all things to try before concluding the mouse has gone bad.\n\nThen..... if it's a ball mouse, try cleaning the ball and the roller bearings it rides against using rubbing alcohol and a q-tip.\n\nTest the mouse on another system if you can. Test another mouse on your system. These are ascending levels of trouble-shooting that help isolate the trouble spot. If something works, stop there. If it doesn't, then go on to the next thing.\n\nHope it's solved by the time you read this! Good luck.

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.

check out who makes your mouse, then go to the manufacturer's website and download the driver for it (many companies have a "default" drivers that offers basic functionality for your mouse.\n\nif your mouse is made by logitech, try this out

Go to control panel and look for the mouse folder. You can configure it there.

Disconnect & reconnect your mouse & keyboard, you could have knocked the connectors loose (this is almost certainly the problem if you have the sort of keyboard that you plug your mouse into rather than plugging it directly into the computer).

Have you tried rebooting your system without the dead mouse attached (LOL), then plugging it back in? This might get windows to redetect it, but you'd have to leave the other (wheel) mouse off when you do this.\n\nHave you tried Start, Control Panel, Mouse, and having a look at the Troubleshooting options ?\n\nOr by "mouse" do you mean a touch pad or other inbuilt pointing device? There are options for them also in Control Panel.

try taking the mouse apart and clean the wheels in it

Have you installed the driver? If Yes try to uninstall and reinstall to your notebook. Or buy new optical mouse.

Your mouse is most likely dirty.  some dust got inside and that is why it acting up.  Just open it up and use a Q- tip with rubbing alchol on it and clean it.  It should work perfect again.
