My mouse wont move horizontally

[lr42069]

ok, ive tried to do a few things but i cannot get my mouse to move left or right....however it will move vertically just fine.  This just happened out of nowhere a few weeks ago.  if i try to move left or right the mouse barely moves, it just kinda jerks to the left of the screen, and there is no way to drag it back to the right, the more you try the more it slowly sucks it to the left of the screen.....i cleaned out my mouse and made sure that the rollers could be read because its a ball mouse.....what could be my problem and how do I fix it? thanks

made sure that the rollers could be read

If the ball is clean & the rollers are clean & free to turn and the problem persists then it is probably a broken wire just near the mouse entry point.
This can be fixed but really a new laser type mouse with one of those new fangled scroll wheels is the way to go.

lr42069......  It certainly sounds like there is lint or hair wrapped around one of the rollers.....( it doesn't take much ) however , if the problem presists ....do as Fed suggests and get "one of those new fangled scroll wheels" LOL
They are cheap .......

Agreed. New mouse time, WHATEVER the cause of this malady.
