Solved Mouse is has been acting a bit odd after new internet connection

[Jesse Williams]

Ever since, we change internet providers my mouse has been acting odd. It acts like it doesn't want to scroll down or up. I have to force it to scroll or use my down arrow and up arrow keys which is a little better but not by much. Can we fix this problem?

 

[Jesse Williams]

I don't mean to be rude or impatient, but it's been 10 hours since I posted this thread. But, when scrolling, my mouse has been acting up. I have to press the up or down keys to scroll better, but that's not better by much.

Anyhow, when I scroll with the mouse I have to do it twice. It doesn't scroll smoothly. It's choppy and sometimes won't scroll at all.

Try a new battery in your wireless mouse, or try a wired mouse if you have one.

Does your mouse have it's own software program that provides various settings that you could try.

 

[Jesse Williams]

Okay. I will see if that works.

 

[Jesse Williams]

I don't think it has its own software.

 

[Jesse Williams]

It's still scrolling strangely. What could it be?

 

[Jesse Williams]

The problem is mostly occurring on Facebook.

Have you tried a different Browser Jesse ?

 

[Jesse Williams]

I use IE 11 and Google Chrome. The same thing is happening on both browsers. It occurs mostly on Facebook.

Did it help Jesse ?

 

[Jesse Williams]

I don't believe so. I tried it on the Windows 8.1 desktop. It's still acting funny. It acts worse on my laptop.

Do you use a Mouse on your Laptop ? ... And just happens on Facebook ?

 

[Jesse Williams]

Yes, I use a wireless mouse. Yes, basically just Facebook.

If you disable your Antivirus does that resolve the problem ? ...

 

[Jesse Williams]

Let me check! Been a little busy today.

 

[Jesse Williams]

That didn't work by disabling the antivirus.

Check the mouse settings via control panel--mouse and see if any have been altered inadvertently.As earlier suggested,try a wired mouse.
