Hello
I have a mouse problem.
it freezes for a few seconds, without any reason and the computer makes a strange peep/squeak sound when that happens but not through the external speakers but from the unit.
What do you think is causing it? I did the antivirus scan, addware and spyware scan and everything is OK.
Thank you
Amra

Hi Amra! May 20, 2006

The USB port? Maybe you should try changing the port. It happened to another colleague a few days ago.

Good luck!

The leopard cannot change his spots! May 20, 2006

Probably the worst, yet least reported, Trados problem.

This explains why the sound comes from your machine, instead of from the speakers.


But seriously, I don't know a solution.

Could it need cleaned? May 21, 2006

My mouse was freezing up a lot, so I opened it and discovered a small fuzz ball right on the wheel that controls the cursor. Plucked it out with tweezers and problem solved.
Good luck.

Today, I bought a new mouse with USB (old one was with parallel port) and so far, everything is OK.
Thank you all for help.
