mouse is ****** UP

[ChaosPriest]

ok i was jumping on the boards earlier when my mouse stopped working. after 2 seconds it started working again. its an optical corded. now when i start moving the mouse i will stop working until the light on the mouse goes dim, it stays frozen. when the light goes dim it starts working again. kinda screws up my game play. and its doing it all the time. i already updated the driver for it, but before i go get a new one id like it if someone had an answer for me

its doing the same to me, ruddy optical mouses, move it and every once in a while it'll just turn off and back on, with a 1 second freeze, well, ive found out the problem, and im afraid its a design fault, the wire is not really designed for bending at an angle, and over a period of time (4 months average) it'll start blinking on and off as the power cable is actually knocking in and out, so if your mouse cable is at an angle, it will break, mines only at a 30 degree angle yet its still breaking, lucky for me i can get as many replacements as i want since i work at a computor warehouse, to test this, just twizzle the cable closest to the mouse in different angles and it should cut off in angles. the only advice i can say is to find a new place to set your mouse, where the cable is no longer at an angle, of buy a different brand, ;O

Don't evade the swear filter by *ing out one character, let the forum filter do it. If you do it again, it's a warning.

while you didn't get a warning :warning: for the swear filter, you will get one for the elipsis attack, aka spam.
