one time I had an optical mouse and it would go crazy and stuff, and it was driving me nuts! like the mouse would just go out of control whenever I moved it.... and I figured out that it was my star-trek holograpic mousepad that was interfearing with the laser and so it would make it go all over the place.......boy it was funny when I finally figured that one out

If you do get a wireless mouse, get a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery mouse they have out now with like bluetooth or something.
Well i was looking over my logitech info that came with my mx510 and it said that u should only use the mouse with the usb connection if u were using a mac or a laptop. It recommended using the ps2 for pcs. Unusual. Anyone know why they would say this, and if usb does give u a better refresh rate than ps2?

Isnt that the mouse that kept on breaking? I remember talking to you on MSN when you were having major computer problems or something...? You said your mouse was crap, maybe its a different one. Funny though. ;p <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
The Left mouse button received a (large) impact a while ago. This caused it to double click when it shouldn't have, or not click at all. A little bit of glue and small peices of plastic later, and it was fixed.
It was the left mouse button I was complaining about but it was not the fault of the mouse <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->.
What kind of screwed up programmer would make it so you can't use certain mouses for any function in a game? lol
Other than that, I miss my opty mouse. My gameplay skill actually improved with it. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
