problem with my mouse!

And both McAfee and Norton can very well do this as well. Although one thing to add about optical mice. Most don't work well on a shinny surface. A mouse pad or something should rule that one out though. Hi Bill Thanks for the come back! I know the blue ring shows that something is running but was not positive and since I use Vista it is somewhat new to me! Just wanted to be sure so as each made a suggestion I wrote if off after checking it and I did have my op mouse on white paper and on a red mouse pad and a gray one so I think I have eliminated most everything. I guess it is what I will have to live with or up the memory to 8 gigs. Right now I think I can live with it. After Norton for a few years McAfee has been great but they added so much to it I think that it is taking up a lot of memory. Every time I turn around it pops up with something changing registry settings ie Internet Explorer etc. Thanks again! Hi Lee. Open up the Task Manager. There you can see what the CPU usage is at. Also if it is high, you can check out Processes (tab) to see what it is. -- Bill Asus EEE PC 4GB SSD 2GB SODIMM Windows XP Home SP2 |

problem with my mouse!
Lee wrote: Of late I have noticed a delay in the movement with my cursor. Sometimes it just sits there even though I am moving the mouse all over the place and then you will see the indicator that it is getting ready to move (O blue in color rotating) and it will move. Is there any fixes or is this normal? I have a Gateway DX430X with 4 gigs of memory and VISTA, it does not seem to matter if I have a lot going on or even doing this newsgroup. Lee (in Florida) I have a similar problem with my 6-year old WinXP Pro desktop with the original Logitech optical mouse. The mouse pointer freezes frequently. Then the USB connect "Bong sound" is heard...followed by the Bbong" disconnect sound. It does this irrespective of which program I'm using. I tried moving the mouse USB connector to another one. There are no other USB devices connected. Where's a good place to start diagnosing this problem? Thanks! Scott |

If it uses replaceable rechargeable batteries, you can try replacing it. -- Bill Gateway Celeron M 370 (1.5GHZ) MX6124 (laptop) w/2GB Windows XP Home SP2 120GB HD) Intel(r) 910GML (64MB shared) |
