Dear friends,
I've winXP PRO SP2 , last month i bought "SUPERCOMP"
optical mouse which has 800 dpi resolutiuon. Now my mouse is working too fast, whenever i click once on any icon it automatically clicked twice-thrice.

For example, when i click once on NEW TAB under opera/firefox/ie7 then sometime it opens 2-3 Tabs instead of one. When i click on [X] close button of any opened windows then automatically also closed other windows which is just behind that window. After this problem i reduced sample rate to 80 and disabled fast intialization under mouse setting. But still i've problem. Its PS/2. Can anyone tell me whats the problem? And how can i solve it??

Yup... CtrlPnl -> Mouse Properties -> DoubleClick speed... reduce it and test in box on right.

That'll solve ur prob.

Copy this data in notepad and put the file extension as .reg
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"UseDoubleClickTimer"="1"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse]
"DoubleClickHeight"="4"
"DoubleClickWidth"="4"
"DoubleClickSpeed"="450"
Apply the registry file thus made.

Or reinstall mouse drivers...

Try lowering Mouse Sensitivity from 12 to say 8 ..

[Edit] You dont have to lower Mouse Double Click speed .. You have to increase it .. Make it something around 500 to 600 .. On my system the slowest speed has the value of 900 and the fastest speed has value of 200 ..

If u r that fast a double-clickr.. then increase the speed i.e.
Code:
"DoubleClickSpeed"="200"
But 450 is fair enuf. If it doesnt work with this.. then might b something wrong with ur mouse (clean the mid-button spaces, mayb they stick 2 each other or so) or mayb some corrupt installation. U sure u've no viruses in there.
Did u try changing the mouse? Try trouble-shooting by pin-pointin the culprit. Remove & test them one-by-one.

Hmmm maybe u can scare the mouse my pointing a pin towards it;) ... Something like... " U better slow down or I'll poke this pin into you":D :D

On the serious note it's typical that the Windows Mouse settings have no effect in case of Optical Mouse. It's obviously the drivers installed with the mouse riding the roost, check the manufacturer website to see if new drivers are available.

hmmmm.... did u install any drivers when u first install the mouse? try uninstalling the mouse, removing it from the port. restart windows widout mouse once. then switch off, connect mouse and boot into windows again. this time try a generic driver for your mouse. mebbe a generic microsoft mouse driver will do. report back.

No still i've problem. Today i re-installed my winXP by formatting C: drive, after re-installation mouse worked well, but after installation of autopatcher, tune-up utilities2007 again same problem.

My mouse gives "one" click sound, but it acts as double click in windows. But sometime it works normal.

Now.. I've the prob... a click on my x close button.. all my tabs close!!!! Happens everywhere. A single click on a file, opens it. Ya.. I checked Folder options... double click should open the file. Rouge clicks getting done when I do just a single one. Big prob. Mine is a samsung optical mouse. Long time. No prob. Might not b its prob too. When re-installed windows... prob doesn't exist for some dayz. Then all of a sudden it comes. Virus!?! Any idea.... my updated AVG didn't detect it.

Didn't want to make a new thread on the same... so continued here.

Help...

A single click on my mouse acts like multiple clicks. So fast. Checked registry settings. Most r intact. Is it a virus or corrupt sw? Or is it dust between & under my mouse buttons!!!
Biggies.. help please. Any1 got this prob & successfully dealt with it?
Dar lagta hai ek click maarne ke liye! eek...

__________


Cleaned my mouse buttons, below & side everywhere. Prob seems to have disappeared temp... Hope this is the reason. Does an optical mouse too need cleanin!!! kya zamaana aa gaya?

__________

Kudos to my dear friend... tech_mastermind for the fast replies.
He asked me to change my report rates(in advanced mouse hardware properties) to 100(I put it to 200 earlier for smoother gameplay :D) & enable enhanced pointer precision(not changed on my rig). Hope it works. Thnx bro. Posted it here as some one else might benefit from it.

"ll confirm if it's the prob solution. Thnx again.

Kool.... do ya think this is ur prob too...?
