    Hi Paul

    What type of mouse is this? Make and Model and type (type as on PS2, USB or Wireless/Bluetooth)

    Check for actual makers drivers for this mouse and install those or in Device Manager delete the mouse driver, unplug the mouse then plug it back in to re-install the driver, then in Device Manager and open the mouse driver properties and see if any updates are for the mouse.
