Are wireless mouses meant to suck so bad?

[Rye]

My wireless mouse has been sucky lately, I've been changing the batteries lately, but it's still weird. Maybe mouses just are crappy at highlighted and stuff like that, but I think my wireless mouse has been going crazy. Then again, it may just be a temporary thing, like when my keyboard would be weird and mix up my typing.

I have a wireless mouse. Except for on the rare occasion where it'll lose connection with the base signal, it's pretty much a solid piece of work.

Do you have any non-Windows drivers installed for your mouse? I've never much cared for drivers that come with mouses. They can be buggy at times. I use my mouse on average five hours a day and find I have to change the batteries (I use rechargeable) every couple weeks. Perhaps it's time to buy a new mouse.

Most likely just a bad mouse.

I think it is a bad mouse, it's getting worse lately. I don't think I could replace it without getting a new keyboard though, as they all run from the same thing. Ah well.

I'd just use an optical mouse myself. Never much saw the point of wireless ones. And yeah I had trouble the few times I did use them. Optical <3
