Ever clean your mouse balls? If you have a mouse ball riding on 3 contacts or 3 rollers they accumulate fuzz & gunk. I have to clean mine every week or so.

Mine is an optical mouse, so no ball... and when I had mice with balls, I always cleaned the ball and rollers... This is not a ball issue, it's more likely something with the scroll wheel and seems to be software related. -----Original Message----- From: computers-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:computers-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Dale Marshall Sent: Saturday, November 16, 2013 7:33 PM To: computers@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [COMPUTERS] COMPUTERS Digest, Vol 8, Issue 118 Ever clean your mouse balls?

Hi Dale Unsure if it was my post you were replying to In case it was, my rodent is wireless, no ball within, so nothing moving to clean The eye is kept clean In the days of the roller ball mice I certainly had the problem you describe which required periodic removal and cleaning but not with this type Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 17/11/2013 03:33, Dale Marshall wrote: > Ever clean your mouse balls?
