Default Mouse Dust

I want to replace my MS Notebook Mouse 3000 but it seems that no one
makes this style. Nothing similar. Not even close.

Corded USB Travel size (small) Scroll / click / tilt wheel Button on
the side - MANDATORY ! Red LED tracking.

i.e. NO batteries !

Problem, the scroll seems to run away sometimes for no reason. A
large page will start rapidly scrolling. I stop it by fiddling with
the mouse. It does not happen again for a time.

Is this a cleaning problem for the internal pot or what or worn out
?


Have the battery manufactures mandated that only meeces with
batteries are now allowed ?

There are not even many rechargeable mice out there. I have one. It
is a talking bluetooth mouse. Does not hold the charge long enough
but it is fun to use when I want to fool with folks. I can make it
say anything. Like "Get your hands off of me." or "Micky and I are
friends" or naughties.


double triggering buttons can be remedied by soldering in new microswitches.
spurious keypresses like you described can have several causes: Bad power supply,
broken cable, wireless interference(bursts, far apart), broken usb interface, dirt,
failed controller.

The interference you can try to counter with a ferrite on the cable.

If you think it's the usb on the mainboard, use a different USB socket
(there was that acer laptop which had some USB ports on a separate board,
and if you put your hand near the hinge the plug(internal) would come loose
intermittently).

maybe change the cable.

perhaps clean the mouse(the circuit board).

If that won't help, you can only trash it...
