Mouse issues

Hi all

I have a problem with my PS/2 mouse. The scroll wheel is also a 3rd button which i use for opening new tabs in web browsers.

Problem is that at least 2 tabs open with every click, sometimes 3 or 4. For whatever reason Windows sees each click as 2+. I first thought it must be dirt on the sensor making it see 2 seperate events rather than 1 continues event. I opened and cleaned the mouse and still the same problem. Where oh where can i modify the 3rd mouse button settings???

Thanks

IMHO, it's a mouse problem. Try another one.

I agree, it sounds like switch "bounce". I've had that happen on the regular mouse buttons as well.

But that would cost me a whole £5?

I'll get another as soon as i can be bothered to hit the shops. Thanks
