Hi there,
I realise this is probably not the correct forum to post this, erm, issue. But nevertheless, I'm having trouble with the Logitech MX5000 Wireless desktop - specifically the mouse.
If left alone for a while, it seems to develop a mind of its own as soon as you start to use it again. It is difficult to explain: Say the pointer is stationary in the bottom right portion of the screen while you are typing, then you grab the mouse and try to click on the start menu. You drag the mouse down and to the left, but it doesn't seem to respond, so you wiggle it around a little bit and stop. The pointer then begins to follow the exact path and pattern that you just performed, but its a few seconds delayed, and its moving at a constant speed. Once it catches up, it seems to be fine for a while, and then begins the odd and unpredictable behaviour again.
The system is as follows:
Athlon64 X2 4400+
2x512MB Corsair DDR400 Dual Channel
Gigabyte K8N51GMF-939 Integrated Motherboard
Netgear 108Mbps Wireless Card
DVD-RW etc.
WindowsXP SP2
I have analysed the processes in the task manager - there is no correlation between this behaviour and any process or processor usage for that matter. I have even attempted to set the "Setpoint" process with a higher priority, but it had no affect whatsoever.
It is frustrating as hell, when you move your mouse to minimize a window, but it only responds about a second later, and then goes off on a tangent.
I have tried reinstalling the logitech software, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. I'm about ready to assume its a hardware defect (although i'm quite sure it isn't) and have it replaced.
Any advice, guidance or even wit's-end ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul
