| 1430508 | 2017-01-07 06:19:00 | Beginning to think not. What happens is, after a while, days, mouse starts to speed up - that is the movement across the screen. To the point it's annoying and hard to control. I can cure it 2 ways: adjust mouse speed in settings (but it comes back and I end up having mouse speed turned down to nothing) Unplug it, plug it back in again This happens with all mice, all USB ports. The USB ports are just fine with keyboard in them, printer and so on. So beats me.....I bought a new mouse recently too, fancy one with it's own driver and control software, same thing. So that sort of eliminates driver issues. Removed and reinstalled them anyway - the Windows standard one as well as the new mouse one. Didn't help. |

| 1430513 | 2017-01-07 21:32:00 | I'm just trying out a cheap wireless mouse at the moment, not bad for $10, NB _ the dongle is hidden in the mouse and not loose in the box. www.thewarehouse.co.nz |

| 1430515 | 2017-01-08 04:41:00 | Can't believe it took me so long. It takes a few days because Granddaughter is only here weekends. She pushes the DPI button - located under the scroll wheel. Duh. LIke I didn't think of the DPI button!! Oh well. Problem solved, I fell suitably thick now. |
