Mouse Freezes

[Guest User]

XP Media Center, Version 2002, Service Pack 2

Dell Dimension E520

 

Quite often my USB mouse "sticks" for a moment, then recovers.

Several times a day it freezes entirely and I have to unplug it then

plug it back in to get it working again. (Some sort of driver

conflict?)

 

Surfing around on the web I see a lot of people recommending to

uninstall/reinstall the mouse driver. But I'm a little reluctant to

do this. If I uninstall the driver, won't the mouse stop working?

How would I do anything after uninstalling the driver, and where would

I find a new driver to install?

 

Thanks.

I suggest trying a different mouse and if that works, replace the defective one.
