Try (re)loading the correct driver(s).

If there are any driver(s) for another mouse, uninstall them.

Laser mouse huh, no wonder, they are normally complete crap. I tried playing once with one, there was a 1 second delay between my mouse movenment and the soldiers movement. You would need to spend a fortune on a top quality one if you want a good one. Until technology gets better, im sticking with the good old reliable wired model.

?

Laser and wired/wireless is completely different.

Not only that, but both technologies have matured a long time ago to the point they are better then either a track ball or the same as using a wired mouse.

You do not need to spend a fortune, just do not buy the cheap wireless ones as there will be a delay.

wireless shit means i have to buy batteries, which i can rarely afford so i stick to wired shit. Have you checked the lens on the mouse? i got a small hair caught on mine once and my shit started acting weird. don't forget to not stare directly at the laser :P.

Is it wired or wireless? If its wireless, try moving the base station away from your monitor, it will screw up the signal.

I have the same problem with my mouse..... same logitech mouse too. Its really spastic and is a REAL pain in the ass for gaming. Constant spin-outs.

Wish I'd bought a microsoft, hell, my Dell mouse that came with my computer was better than this.

Nope.

Logitech's are rechargable.
