In the Olden Days, when there were lots of different mice, you had to

Is it possible that any of the following are true:

- it's an old mouse
- it's a ball mouse (!)
- it's an optical mouse on a mirrored or transparent or deeply
cracked/pitted surface
- the optical opening is partly blocked eg by a hair

That is most likely a problem with an optical mouse, a bit of cruft in
the light opening on the bottom. Yeah, HAIR is the biggy around here
with two dogs, two cats and one crufty old guy, losing his hair as
well. :) Ric
