deleting (mouse) devices from Device Mgr ...?
Hi folks,
my mice have developed "hiccups". i use both a PS2 and USB mouse (the ps2 is hooked up to a shared KB/ mouse / monitor system that feeds 3 computers. never been a problem.) the USB is one of those optical mice with scroll-wheel. nice.) using both mice on my main XPpro box has never been an issue. last couple of days, my mice are "hiccuping" - this means, usually after engaging the mouse and clicking on a new item, the mouse pointer "jumps" about 3 inches to the left on my screen. bit annoying. thru the hardware panel, can I simply delete mice from the "Mice & Other Pointing devices" list, and XP will re-build the drivers on re-boot, or with automatic USB detection? another similar question: can USB devices be deleted from the "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" list (in device mgr) and they'll automatically be re-installed? (i have both motherboard and pci-slot USB ports); my list has 4 "Intel 82801EB USB Universal Host Controllers, 1 Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller, 2 USB Mass Storage Devices (might be the camera flash cards I have plugged in), and 5 USB Root Hubs. I'm sure a techie has talked me thru deleting some of these list items in the past and re-boot auto re-builds them. Perhaps it was the ROOT HUBS only. any enlightenment on Mouse Hiccups and Deleting Devices from Dev Mgr would be greatly appreciated. flavio |
