Subject: ive a mouse problem
in the last six weeks ive purchased 3 new ones they work fine for a few days then just stop any ideas at what could be causing this problem or is there something wrong with my computer itself

imsoaddicted:Are your mice of the type that have small ball-like plastc things under them or do they work by "red light" system?

imsoaddicted: I rarely hear of a mouse that breaks - let alone 3 of them.

So hearing that you went through 3 of them, my guess there is something wrong with the PC side of it and not the mouse side of it. I'm not sure what the problem would be....

So when you say "just stop" - does that mean it does not move the pointer anymore on the screen? Or is it just very "buggy" when it moves?

imsoaddicted: Does the keyboard still respond? That is if you press the "num lock" button, the num lock light on the keyboard lights up?

I don't know.... just seems very strange - I rarely see a mouse that breaks, let alone 3 of them.... the only thing I can think of is a PC problem, but I'm not sure what it would be.

When it freezes up, after you reboot your computer do they work again for awhile or broke right away?

imsoaddicted: Strange.

Has anything else changed on the computer since the problem started? That is did you add anything else to it - either hardware or software?

Is the computer Windows XP?
