Crappy Mice and Reform School

Mice are great for stuff new
Optical mice are great
How the hell do they foul up in such short order? (FOO FIGHTERS)

You know the delinquents--two-button Scrollers.

After awhile it won't click well and it doesn't seem to be focused.

The right button is groovy but I gather the left switch is either dirty or the switch needs a blue download...oh nevermind that could be the cause.

One screw holds 'em together (Cue Daryl and Toni ONE! One screw holds 'em together!/Yet they don't work whenever/some poor user's clicking like mad/frustrated, sad/Thinks of the errors and feels he was had/Stop! cause it's quite a pain yeah Stop! cause it's gotta work better/Look at this post, I've no love/for it whatever...and ever).

Seriously, for a change. Instructions to neuter the booger?

Maybe it's the danged box or browser.

I can zap over my desktop images at light spped.

I have XP SP3 and IE 7. My board is ten. I have a Celeron 2.6 with a 128 MB L2. A 2.4 P4 would do better. I have a 900 MHZ AMD HP that slays it.

I forgot: It's a USB but the PS/2 critters end up the same. Call Nero Wolfe.

Sounds like a toasted mouse.

BTW where is everyone?

I don't know but do you know how bad the page looks with a standard VGA driver in 16 bit mode when all you have is a 4.2GB ME disk to run with?

The USB mouse behaves a lot better if you leave the PS/2 siamese.

In ME it doesn't do most of that, I would think it's the really low resolution from having no onboard video driver right now. I could cure that I think.

AVG 9.0 doesn't support 9X OS so this is just an emergency stopgap to gather repair and other info.

I've had quite a few 286-early Pentium era serial mice, some functioned great into nearly 20 years of life.

Scroll mice are just built like crap.

Wow. It's nice when the video driver is installed!

Sounds like the problem is solved. Hopefully you get your other computer up and running soon.

This IS that 2.6 GHz Celeron on Intel D845GBV...

on drugs I suppose. I need to find my Windows 2000 disc and get real.

 

[Web Police]

Well if you need a Windows 2000 disc and a larger HD, I can send you a disc and a larger HD to install it on.

 

[orange]

Oh, I have large discs...think I know where to get a copy of 2000 while I work stuff out.

Okies I was just trying to help a fellow AS member in need.
