tdawnaz Posted December 21, 2007 Author CID Share Posted December 21, 2007 keyboard and mouse r logitech...neither r cordless... the mouse is a trackMan and the keyboard is an itouch where everything is on the keyboard...but it doesn't matter which i use the wheel on the mouse or the keyboard or the scroll bar on the screen or the arrow buttons...they all do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted December 21, 2007 CID Share Posted December 21, 2007 So go back to solution number one. Or Drink more. It won't be as noticable. Maybe redo the drivers? The old ones might be corupted. I know some things just get that way after a while. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted December 21, 2007 CID Share Posted December 21, 2007 I kind of had the same problem with my Trackman Marble+. Thats the older White or creamish colored one. It would make the screen all jittery when I would scroll and then it would go away. I bought one of the new one that are USB for my wifes computer. About a month ago it started acting up again so I unplugged the The older one and tried the new one and everything worked good again. But to make sure I plugged the old one back in and it started acting like crap so I went out and bought a new one and haven't had a problem yet. But I'll warn ya if you have the older one that is white you'll have to get used to the new shape. I miss my old one (RIP) I had it since 1999.

Prodeus Posted December 21, 2007 CID Share Posted December 21, 2007 Just from the basic description, it sounds like you are having a video driver problem. I know when I am doing work on computers and don't have the video drivers setup properly, it will make any scrolling through pages really choppy and crappy looking. Might wanna start with redoing your video drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlewis23 Posted December 21, 2007 CID Share Posted December 21, 2007 Hey, i remember that mouse. I had one of those a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted December 21, 2007 CID Share Posted December 21, 2007 Yep, thats the one that died on me. If you got another mouse any mouse with a scroll wheel give it a try before you buy a new one. this is the one I have now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prodeus Posted December 21, 2007 CID Share Posted December 21, 2007 hahaha...so in the world of computers...is anything over 5 years old considered an antique? No. 6 months old is an antique. 5 Years old would be ancient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
