sn4ke67 · 07-21-2009, 12:36 PM

all of a sudden i have to really press my middle mouse button to open a new tab on firefox/ie/anything, scrolling etc still works as normal

i took apart the mouse and cleaned everything took the scroll wheel out and cleaned the contact part, air dusted the rest, re positioned it and theres nothing wrong at all that i can see

i uninstalled/reinstalled the driver

its annoying to the point im going to buy a new one tomorrow unless anyone has an idea or knows something i dont

xp sp3
e8400
xfx gtx260 black
4gb gskill pi black
750w cor

mouse driver v1.08 firmware v1.27

solution involves a
soldering iron
razer
superglue
needle

but now i have to sometimes double click for it to work but i dont have to press hard

I'm having the same problem but I don't think I can take apart my mouse like that. I might just investigate a new one.
