Try all other ports on the PC, often the front and back will have different USB controllers When did it last work correctly? What has changed since then? Is there a System Restore point to roll back to before then? Change the batteries if wireless, try another USB port, reset mouse from button on bottom if available. Try the mouse in another PC to isolate if it's the mouse or Windows causing this.
Try another mouse in this PC to confirm if Windows is the problem. It seems you did this but try one more time as this absolves the mouse and should change our focus. Access the Device Manager reached by right clicking the Start button, choose the Mouse, then Driver tab. If not choose Uninstall button, restart PC using keyboard to Ctrl Alt Del, on blue screen tab to Power Icon in bottom right, press Enter, arrow down to Restart, press Enter to restart to reinstall the driver.
Uninstall it to see if the problem stops. This is unneeded bloatware. Drove me crazy! I knew I needed a mouse pad, but there was not enough room no matter what style I found. After reading the comments here, I got the idea to fold up a piece of plain white paper sized to fit the small space available on the keyboard tray , and voila! Many thanks to the person who mentioned a blank piece of white paper!
I also have the same problem. I am using a genius mouse. It keeps on moving from one place to another when win xp boots up. Sometimes it tiles up windows that are open. It also restores windows n its own. What do I do to get rid of this problem?
If you have a touchscreen, try disabling the touchpad. Have tried using different mouse pad but problem persists. I have e processor and DGGfb motherboard. Please help me. This features an ability to walk by pressing the right then left mouse buttons and ability to steer and scroll wheel the camera as well. However my mouse has started for a month if not longer.
Really freaky when your character is trying to avoid falling off a cliff by just a few meters. And none of them seem to have come back saying that their mouse has stopped jumping, in fact one person kept coming back and still has the demon-possessed jumping mouse.
There was even some joking to call a priest, OY! Irregular colors and contrasts tend to confuse the tracking sensors in some optical mice. I have the same problem, my mouse moves up to the corners of the screen quickly, which closes programs sometimes.
I am using a mouse pad that has a jelly inside that is circular and is the world with ships floating around inside lol. No wonder my optical mouse does what it does. Lets hope using something solid sorts it out!!! There is more to this than the surface the Optical mouse is sat on. At work both my machine and My colleagues mouse pointer will erratiaclly jump to another place. My mouse is optical, he still is using a conventional mouse with roller ball.
While some peoples problems seem to be fixed by these simple solutions it would seem my problem is much more complicated.
My problem occurs when I move the mouse. For example, I move my mouse from left to right and it randomly jumps to the bottom or the top or the corner…. I am having the same problem with a floating mouse but mine is on my Dell laptop not desktop. I use a touchpad not an auxilary mouse and no mousepad. Any suggestions? The cell actually makes other nearby speakers make weird noises at various times. I have had this same problem for years over a number of computers and mice. The mouse suddenly takes off, quickly in an upward direction usually leading to the top left, then spirals quickly around the screen to the right, then down and then inward to rest nearly in the middle of the screen.
And it all happens way faster than my hand could move. I call it the psycho mouse. It has happened to several computers I have at home but has not happened at work. Could it be related to the fact my house is near a radio tower?
For day to day use, no. Everyone in the office here has just received new mousemats with our own branding on it and 3 of us sitting beside each other have experienced erratic cursor movement straight away. The mat has a shiny plastic finish to it. My previous mat has a kind of textured cloth covering which worked fine.
Someone else here mentioned cell phones interfering with mice, and I can confirm that this is also true. It affects my USB mouse if the phone is on top of the mouse cable on the desk. The cursor moves in a straight line upwards in small jittery movements when the phone rings, just like how you would hear the interference in a speaker.
Makes you wonder what else a mobile phone could interfere with! I just have it when the mouse jumps to left or right or bottom left or right corners. Sometimes it jumps between the corners, top bottom, left, or right. And when it jumps it presses mouse buttons. I tried leaving the mouse disconnected over night the hooking the batteries up again and turning on the PC.
My laptop is only 3 months old and I am having problems with the cursor jumping all over when typing etc. I use the touchpad not a seperate mouse same problem occurred with wireless mouse.
I looked in my Device Manager on my computer. You should then be able to use TAB and the arrow keys to get to the hardware tab.
Press the right arrow to expand the tree. Press enter to confirm the uninstall. This is a crude method to do it but it worked for me. Good luck! This problem can happen if you restart the machine with RS active communications a serial cable plugged in that is transmitting data. Once the communication source is disconnected the jumping will stop. This is due to Windows looking for a pointing device and finding data on the com port.
The only solutions I can think of are for one of you to go to a wired mouse, or for one of you to switch to a different wireless technology such as bluetooth. Re wireless mouse interference — try resetting the mouse to receiver link while your neighbor is using their computer.
This should result in it picking up a different channel. I had to do this with a wireless keyboard when my neighbor complained that she was getting my text including passwords in plain text on her screen! And she lives next door! I had exactly the same problem with erratic mouse behavior and found out the problem thanks to one of the comments.
As soon as I disconnected it, all problems went away. I have a wired Logitech Optical mouse and experience this erratic behavior every day. There is no cell phone sitting on the cord, and I use a solid black cloth mousepad from Staples. Sometime the bouncing from place to place on the screen will go on for a full minute before I regain control of the mouse.
At least for my situation. From my research I discovered that the Logitech mouse is incompatible with some versions of XP. This setting makes all the difference in the world. In my case, the dancing mouse left immediately upon making this change.
I have a Logitech G7 mouse that runs from exchangable rechargable batteries. When it started jumping around on the screen I fixed it by cleaning the metal contactpoints on the batteries.
I used a small screwdriver to scrape off the dark brownish spots. Now it works. Another possibility is that someone is remotely snooping on your screen — and their mouse movements are actioned by your PC. Especially noticeable when they close top right a window, or go for the Windows start button bottom left.
Hello…Twice in the last month, I have lost control of my wired mouse. The arrow just goes all over the page but does not click on anything as if some had control of my pc and I have no control until I reboot. Any ideas? I have Vista. My wired mouse is causing the same, as soon as I try to point and click it jumps all over and move to the side. My wired optical mouse works perfect, but last week I found a Trajan and a worm.
I Found out the Virus Takes control of the Mouse pointer to make changes in the computer settings and steels information like names addresses and credit card info I Crashed my Logon setting and the Desktop display. Actually, to make sure the problem is not caused by the surface, I tried a newspaper.
Now, after successfully trying with a white paper, I realised, that my white painted surface got more and more black dots over the years, and so the problem became more and more. It is not only my optical mouse, but my touch pad on my laptop and also another I plug into my computer, seems that whatever mouse I put does the same thing.
Is it my computer? I tried to see if it was dirty, but all three of them act the same way. Hello, I have a HP laptop but my mouse jumps around on the screen when I hold my finger on the mouse pad.
What can it be? I took your suggestion and dumped my very shiny Elvis mouse pad; I am now using my wood grained desk top—voila! No more problems! This is a brand new computer, so after being unsuccessfull with the manufacturer I was fortunate to find your suggestion.
My mouse is jumping around on my Acer laptop with Vista. I had sensitivity, tapping, etc. AV return no virus, the behavior is not persistent, sometime it just let go and sometimes it suddenly became very erratic. Please email me with a direction to fix this problem. My pointer or mouse wont stay latched to a page. Even with email I have to click back on the page to keep typing. I can be typing something then I found out there is nothing that I typed and have to re-click on the page.
