mouse messup

[daves01902]

Alright, I'm using a MI Micro Innovations optical mouse, and when I single left click, it double clicks. I've gone into device properties, set the mouse click to the slowest setting, and it still doubleclicks. How do I fix this?

Thanks.

How old is the mouse. It can be a result of a worn out click switch.

G'day DaveS, you might try another mouse, the one you have may be a little too inovative.
Maybe trying the manufacturers site and mentioning the problem might have some assistive effect.
I haven't seen that particular problem previously, so all the mouse properties in the control panel check normal?
It almost sounds like a driver problem, it will be interesting to see if another known good mouse performs properly.
Surely a defective switch wouldn't reliably double-click every time?
That must be a lot of fun!! (it sure would be if you were using Mepis Linux! LOL, you would have hundreds of windows open in just a few clicks!)
Cheers, qldit.
