Re: Ten Mouse Cursor Problems

While using the mouse (windows xp) I may encounter any of the below
conditions or a combination of many.

(1) Highlighting a sentence or paragraph may have to be accomplished
several times as it vanishes and have to start over prior to clicking
copy. Occurs on any webpage or in notepad, wordpad, works, office,
wordperfect, any editor in general, and Outlook Express wrinting a E-mail
or a Newsgroup Posting.

(2) Mouse cursor unmanageable. I will go to move the mouse to a position
and find that it is dancing along the topmost point of the display. When I
do regain control of the mouse cursor it then starts from the bottom and I
have to move it to the location, not from its original point. Do not
understand this occurrance as nothing was happening in the background and
theres no virus and no spyware.

(3) To select a begin point for the cursor you would simply left click the
screen in a editor and the mouse cursor should appear there instead of
where it was. This is logical, but this is not what is happening here.
When I do this click sometimes the sentence will highlight and sometimes
both words or just one word will highlight, I make several attempts to do
the same click and it alternates so I must be doing something right but
the computer is doing something wrong. Finally the click takes hold and
the cursor is moved, but it can happen again and again in the same page
before I save the page.

(4) Timing a menu event seems a likely direction to slow down interaction
when the mouse hovers and when it grasps the hovering the action is
encountered. I have went to to many undesired locations when this happens
because it happens to fast for me. Slower mouse seems the answer but that
did not help.

(5) Using CTRL+C to copy and CTRL+P to paste works I have done this and
using alternate mouse right click menu Paste feature works as well, but
when it don't I must highlight the area once again and right click the
area with the mouse to get the menu to click Copy then go to Paste either
using the CTRL+P or mouse right click menu Paste feature as the original
CTRL+C did not see the action to copy the highlighted area and did not
Paste the area but perhaps pasted something else instead like what was in
the Clipboard instead.

(6) If when I highlight an area the mouse cursor happens off the right or
the left side of the window the system will change windows abruptly on me
and I get lost as to where I was and find pastes on the wrong page like
where the copy can from and that upsets the copy and closing the copy and
selecting NO to Save Changes is necessary but I have lost some copies as
the system could close Windows and this pops up many Save Copy windows and
or messages and I don't know when I got the right one saved and the copy
closed.

(7) Changing the mouse cursor to a position between characters once was
without trouble, now I can't get the mouse cursor to respond with accuracy
its either before or after the location I want it from my click aqnd I
have to click again and again to get the position correct, smaller
characters seem more of a problem that bigger ones or ones that stick out.

(8) The hesitating mouse hourglass sometimes takes 5 minutes to respond to
a windows explorer change and accessing Temporary Internet Files Folder
seems longer than 5 minutes. Animation could be doing this so I might
consider changing the hourglass out.

(9) Worse of all is the mouse cursor making the decision for me when I
select a option which has more options than a default access using the
left click to get to a menu for that choice to select a option and or type
in a folder name or filename. The cursor goes rampage and does the default
action on the right click.

(10) In WinTV2000 I capture the TV display in a side bar, the mouse cursor
is used to select a image and by also scrolling to the bottom from the top
or vice versa and right click holding the Shift+click for a menu will open
every image instead of popping the menu up to save the images, it does not
get to the menu before it has hyper reacted to the click and chose for me
to display the images and so this requires closing all images, if there
are 50 or more this is time consuming, if to many the program will fail to
respond and a error report message will popup and this loses all the
images entirely when the program closes. [On A Similar Note] WinTV2000 run
in MSN Messenger and having setup the webcam and selected to view TV with
WinTV2000 running will show the TV Channel not webcam image and the image
is reversed backwards what is on the right is suppose to be on the left
and vice versa.

I have plenty memory and lots of HD space and clean the files off TIF
Folder often so this is not the problem, but the cursor mouse is a Memorex
Laser No Ball and theres a wire not wireless, once I had installed a
Wireless Microsoft Mouse and it exploded from overheating and would no
longer function and Microsoft never sent me a form to return the mouse nor
corresponded regarding their exploding wireless mouse hardware.

I tried removing the mouse and the programs, when windows XP rebooted it
reinstalled the mouse and the problems are still present.

Are you sure you have the correct mouse driver loaded?
