ell, I've been using this mouse for a while now (Microsoft Optical) and now in just HL, that I can see, its acting up. Its not the mouse, I've tried it with a different mouse (same type) and it did the same thing.
I've tried a different mouse pad, nothing.
Got new drivers, still the same, checked.
The mouse smoothing didn't help, it just keeps working, then every like 30 seconds to a minute, either it changes direction or moves the aim/mouse pointer around with me not even touching it.
Also sometimes when I fire, it will keep firing for a few seconds which has resulted in a few tk's.
Any ideas would be nice.


thanks to zahl

Please, retype that so that its legible. Seriously..Im not joking.

Trying to translate it:

Reinstall your graphics card drivers. I'v had a similar problem (or so I think from what I read). I also thought it was my mouse, but it only did it in-game, reinstalling the drivers for my graphics card fixed my problem.

I have this problem. It feels like mouse accelerations however when i turned it off in xp settings nothing happened. My mouse speed seems random, it sticks and moves slowly, the next minute u turn u do 360 degrees b'cos its so sensiitive. It only started happening since XP

Did a google on "ms optical mouse problems" Number of sites listed. Here is one that looked interesting.
