monkeygirl Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 This past week I've been having online problems. I KNOW YOU'RE SHOCKED. but seriously. Like, I can't drag things around a screen, I always lose them unless I concentrate on really holding my right button down. And when I try to highlight text, it gives me fits! I can't easily highlight even the shortest text. I know it's not my cursor, ha ha, but is this a mouse issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destiny Skywalker Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Maybe clean the bottom? Sometimes mine gets a little funky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms. Spam Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I get this at work. I hate it. They want me to do all this stuff on computers now but only give me a computer with 8 gigs of ram. So I run out of cache fast as well as memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeygirl Posted November 30, 2023 Author Share Posted November 30, 2023 Its bottom is clean. It's a regular, corded mouse. Now, instead of right clicking, it's giving me odd drop down menus. I play a jigsaw puzzle game and I'm having real trouble grabbing and moving the puzzle pieces. It's very frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamevet Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Go into your control panel and click on mouse and keyboard. You can increase the polling rate of your mouse in those settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destiny Skywalker Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 I have 2 of that mouse, Tami. Works great and we've never had a problem with them. I think we got them at Target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
