I have been having problem with my mouse, it moves itself. This happens when I download a particular file (Comodo firewall or just Microsoft mouse drivers) or when I update McAfee virus software. I have even uninstalled McAfee Security Suit and replaced it with Avast. McAfee is a memory hog! I have tried three different optical mice: Two Logitech, one with a cord and the other cordless and one Microsoft comfort 3000 with a cord. I have tried cleaning the optics. I have replaced the mouse pad, uninstall and reinstall the drivers in the device manager. I have scanned my PC for viruses with McAfee Security Suit, Trend Micro house call and Kaspersky and nothing. I do have a KVM switch for my other computers, so I hooked up the USB mouse directly to my computer and nothing. What I have not done is uninstall, in the device manager, all the devices under Human Interface Devices, plus the Mouse driver, which is the only one there. Then boot up and reinstall and update the drivers. In the back of my mind am thinking it might be the power unit which is a 600W OCZ with 72 amps Well on Monday I will be replacing the Motherboard with a Gigabyte, the CPU with AMD Phenom 2 X2 550 BE and the Memory with Corsair 6400C5C 4GB. I want to keep the same operating system, but if I have the same problem with the mouse I might as well grab one of my fresh images and install that. Then change the Mass Storage controller to the default settings, so I don’t get the BSOD when I boot from the new hardware. I will not be fooling with the Hardware abstraction Layer. Or I could transfer the Windows XP Activation Information on to a clean install. Does anyone have any advice here?
I presently have on this computer:
Windows XP
MSI K8N Neo Platinum Motherboard 754 socket.
AMD Athlon 3200+ CPU – Frequency is 2.2GHz
1.5GB Corsair memory CAS 2.5
NX6600GT-VTD128
