View Full Version : do i need a new mouse??
I have a ms intellimouse explorer which is about 5/6 years old. Every now and then Ive noticed that the mouse curser move on its own accord. Ive seen it move about good few inches in tiny tiny increments randomly about the screen. Im not touching the mouse nor is there any external vibrations that could affect it (ie having the bass turned up) This sometimes happen in CS making it well hard to aim. Any ideas wots causing this and if the mouse is nakered wot a good but uber cheap mouse to get (im skint at the mo :()??
cheers

Cheap and good? What's your budget then? I think you should stick to an A brand but then take the cheapest model. Some cheap logitech optical and make sure you got a good surface underneath it.. otherwise you will notice those increments again.
Good Luck
Here's the one you want..........
