Re: Cannot left click using mouse properly

said by Mele20 See Profile :

I haven't seen ANY small mice in the stores here. All are HUGE. Anyhow, this computer is under extended warranty for two more years so if I need a new mouse Dell will send a ball type free and that is what I like as Dell mice are small.

I never ever have had to clean a ball type mouse in over ten years of having them. They usually last 4-5 years or longer. The optical ones don't last like the ball ones do.
Dell themselves make an optical mouse that's exactly the same size as the one you likely have. In fact you'd be likely to get one of them if your ball breaks.

There are tons of small optical mice, there are very tiny ones for mobile use. Logitech V100 (cheap) and VX Nano (more pricy, laser) are quite small and there are even smaller ones.



Find me a ball mouse that small. Either you are blind or the stores in your area really suck, notebook mice are everywhere.

I have an MS Optical (The original Five button optical) that I bought back in 2000. Still works great.

Check to see if "Snap To" is selected. If it is uncheck it. Depending on the mouse there may be other options available that will move the pointer without user input so look at all of the options available.

[/BQUOTE :


but hey how can i do that to stop automatic movements of my mouse !
i mean that option is meant to move my mouse pointer automatically to the default button in the dailog box, so it will move my mouse automatically more which i dont want

I don't want a notebook mouse especially nothing from Logitech. I want a standard three button mouse for a desktop. Yeah, I could use a notebook one but I just want a standard mouse for a desktop. Those are not tiny but they are not big either. I need one that is not just for right handed and it amazes me how many are still just for the right hand. I still have a Microsoft three button smaller mouse (PS/2) for my old computer and I always liked it.

Yes, I have had a Dell optical mouse and it is the same size as the Dell ball mouse I am currently using. Dell sent me the ball mouse with a computer exchange several years ago although I had a Dell optical one at the time and continued to use it until it died. I then got out the Dell ball one and I like it better than the optical one. The size is just right ...not too small and not huge like so many I see in the stores. Yes, we have only Office Max and Walmart to shop in for computer stuff. The only thing I don't like about the Dell mice is that the logo wears off really fast (but not as bad as Dell Quiet Keyboard in black where I have worn off most letters but Dell white Quiet Keyboard, after over ten years, still has all letters visible).

I suggested you look at that option to make sure it had not somehow been selected by default not that I wanted you to chose that selection.

When a user installs a new mouse depending on if the user installs software supplied with the mouse the OS will supply the drivers and select default options for the mouse which is why a user should always look at the mouse options after replacing a mouse.

What does the logo wearing off the mouse have to do with functionality?

You still do not explain why you can not shop online? Amazon or NewEgg has a extraordinary amount of mice to select from.
