[dba-Tech] Mouse quit working...

I'd be tempted to download a new mouse driver - I know Logitech mice have
different software, maybe the MS ones do too?

Is is possible that the driver software has some sensitivity setting set
incorrectly??  Do you have any special Intellimouse driver software loaded?
Try add and remove programs for that and try and delete it? Or perhaps check
under Mouse Properties in Control Panel??
There is also a TroubleShoot tab there on mine.
