I also have a Logitech. Mine's about 4 years old and the only thing I have had to do to it is change the batteries about once a year. I have a Logitech wireless... had about 6 years and change battery once a year.

Turned the mouse every which way and seems lost it's balls and done healed over. I am an equal opportunity mouse killer. Blackweb was my latest victim. Logitech usually last me about a month or sometimes 2. Got my a spare on the way as try to keep one in reserve now.

I've had decent luck with logitech. I've had Razer gaming mice for years. Another vote for logitech- they are cheap, sold everywhere, and last me forever

Just noticed this thread. Maybe the issues I am having are coming from my mouse. Sometimes I have to click multiple times to get a response and when I hit the back button it often goes back more than one reply. I looked at my mouse and the only thing I see is Microsoft, made in China, lol. Where does one get a logitech?
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Nittany Wally World, best buy or even Ebay will have em. If running wireless a low battery will cause you grief as well though.

If you get a logitech and it acts up do NOT throw it away. Shut down your PC and restart and it will usually work right. IDK why but after trashing one that was actually still good I figured this out.

Why not go to wired? I've never had any mouse problems and I have put many years on them with millions of clicks.

Why not go to wired? I've never had any mouse problems and I have put many years on them with millions of clicks. For the small inconvenience I have with mine, I don't need or want another wire. My computer area now looks like someone dumpped pan of black spagehtti. Once in a while mine doesn't act right and I take the baatery out shine up both terminal on my jeans, put it back... if it still don't work I put in a new battery and Whalla...It works. Thanks for the chuckle ADC...Garry-

Try going into your computer DEVICE settings > Mouse > adjust you speed, cursor, wheel, Left / Right buttons. Hope this will help.

Will check that out Sniper. Funny how they will work flawlessly for awhile before starting the issues. Can scoll ahead then it will bounce back on it's own. Sometimes half a page at a time.
