Mouse cursor moves on its own
Last response: in Windows XP
Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)
Hello,
I have a very basic MS mouse and having an odd problem with it. The mouse
cursor randomly decides to move on its own. It only moves from right to
left or left to right and will not stop until you either move the mouse or
it hits the end of the screen. Sometimes it's a smooth movement while other
times it sort of jutters (but in a perfect horizontal line).
What is causing this?

the day. May I interest you in parts of my body?

First, is this a ball or optical? Some cheap opticals do this, but
usually not in a perfect line like that. I would suggest downloading
and installing the latest drivers for it from here:

I'll give the drivers a go, but it's a ball mouse not optical.
