Guys!
This problem occurs only in Windows 98.
Whenever I connect net in windows 98, my mouse becomes mad, i.e, it becomes very buggy, It starts showing trails while moving it, I can't move thye cursor easily, very irritating.
This never happens in XP.

And this problem is related to power supply.
Cauz whenever I set Power-supply type to ATX in BIOS settings, this problem occurs, and If i set it to AT, all works fine in 98 too.

So is there ne solution for it?
I can't set the power supply type to AT, cauz then I can't make use of stand by and power off functions.
can my mouse driver updating help?
I hv Logitech mouse, don't know the model number / name.
How can I find the latest driver for my mouse?

Well, This is really very strange,

U have the mouse box ? or atleast the mouse CD ?
the serial must be written in it...

ALso, do u use any mouse s/w for pointers, coz many r spywarez....Jus in case....

it mite work...try it out

u can get logitech mouse drivers from here:

*www.logitech.com/index.cfm/downloads/finder/US/EN,CRID=270

even if u dont know ur mouse model,etc you can still see if its optical, if its wireless, if its USB or if its PS2.

just download a driver which matches ur mouse and try.

hope it works

may be some trojan or keylogger is making a problem just your pc throughly with a antrojan software and antivirus

@popper1987
Never...
It always happenss even after a fresh 98 install...

OOps,
forgot to mention, plz see below ur mouse for info !

Well, y do u change the options in the BIOS for ?

Yah!
I had already seen that under the mouse.
There is something like that:

M/N: M-S61

Is it actual model number?
I doubt!

And I changed the BIOS settings to check whether it solves the problem or not?
