My mouse is jumping around, drifting, lagging, not moving where it should.
It is very frustrating.
I bought a new mouse pad, disconnected and reconnected the USB cable, and
cleaned the bottom of the mouse with a moist cloth. Nothing helps.
Is it likely just a mechanical problem that would be solved by buying a new
mouse? Possibly the mouse driver? Any suggestions?
BTW, are these mice frequently problematic? Is an old-fashioned roller-ball
mouse actually preferable?
