Desk top running Vista; mouse pointer seems too senstive.
« on: March 05, 2016, 09:54:49 AM »
When I point and click, sometimes I get several drop down boxes, I can seldom identify what they are all about.
Is my computer garfed up or is it me?

If you use a different mouse is it still too sensitive?

I have tried several mice with no change.

Thanks for your reply.

Have you checked the mouse setting?  Some will allow you to set buttons for multiple clicks.

Under Control Panel there is a Mouse option. Go in there and you can alter its behavior to be faster or slower and more.

Thanks for the tip.
Why didn't I think of that!
