For the past few weeks my mouse is sticking and then freezing up and I have to shut the computer down and restart again. Then over and over again, it sticks and I have to restart again. I have done a system restore, I have no known problems listed with my USB optical mouse or with windows 7.
I have been visiting forums and I can't find answers to this problem. I tried fixes in case the sleep mode was affecting this - nothing changed. I tried updating drivers - nothing change.
Anybody know where I should go next? I believe the problem is a software or update related one and not a USB or mouse problem.
Thanks

Thanks to all who have taken the time to respond. It is greatly appreciated and was so helpful. I ended up just buying a wireless mouse and a new pad and so far this has been working.
Because I have new problems all the time now, I believe somone has hacked this computer because it's behavior isn't consistent. I haven't been able to get on the internet for awhile now. I did have my computer fixed a few months ago after it was hacked and maybe he's back again.
My msn front page will change and the language says "latino" (which I am not) and then I have problems with this computer. He or she has to have something to do with this. Oh well, everything's been backed up and It's such a pain trying everything to fix these nuisances. This week - buying the best virsus protection I can buy.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and thanks so much.
