CM and Microsoft intelli mouse freeze.


Recommended Posts

I play CM TCP/IP with my brother all the time. However, usually once per

long session, his mouse freezes on him, forcing him to reboot to use the

mouse again. He can send messages and use keyboard commands fine. The game

appears to run properly, just no mouse movement. He can also not use the

mouse on his desktop, or anywhere else in windows.

He is using one of those microsoft intelli-eye laser mouse thingies. His

mouse software is not updated with the latest drivers.

I have the same type of mouse, but have not experienced similar problems.

Anyone know what might be going on?

I've used one of the Microsoft "infrared" mice and didn't care a whole lot for it. I would get a bit of a jerkiness in it's movement/response (freezes lasting a couple of seconds) at times, though no full lock up.

Is the mouse's infrared lens completely clean ? What surface is he using to "mouse" on ? Have you tried swapping mice temporarily to see if the problem follows the mouse or remains with his computer ?
