If anyone knows how to fix this annoying problem I will be
so thankful. My mouse has been very erratic in behavior on
and off lately, it will skip through the screen and
disapearing from the screen! I would always have to end up
unplugging my USB mouse then plugging it back in. While it
works the transition isn't smooth, the sensitivity goes
crazy by itself. It would be very low sensitivity then
randomly go back to higher sensitivity by itself. I have
downloaded the software from the microsoft website to
update it and it still does this!

Although optical mice are not affected much by dirt, sometimes the LED or
the eye can get dust/dirt on them. Just try giving them a wipe.

Could also be the surface you are using the mouse on, they dont like shiny
surfaces or ones without a bit of detail on. The light being reflected back
looks the same to it.

Plus if its old, could be the cable.
