Well, you need to plug in the reciever thingy so that your comp actually RECIEVES the data your mouse sends out (if you havn't done so)...

Is it a wireless mouse with a ball or without?

@ff

Mine's a Logitech MX700. Love it. Getting rid of the wire clutter on my desk is unbelievably better. You don't know what you're missing until you actually do it.
Could not believe the improvement.

Meh. Wireless mice and KBs are ok, but some batteries do not charge well, and the wireless signals can interfere with some equipment (and vice-versa). Cords are still the best in my view .

The newest mouse, when you stop for the night you set it in the charger/recieverbas and it recharges with only anual or bi-anual replacement of batterys. Not bad ff.

That's actually not recommended Final (by me ). If you keep recharging batteries when they are not "empty", then the battery will lose its zero point, end up holding less power.

If the rechargeable battery is NOT a lithium ion battery, this "memory" problem will occur. But it does not happen to lithium ion batteries... and some other ones too... forget which ones. I saw a guide to this stuff a while back. I'll see if I can find it.

Anyway, my mouse is lithium ion rechargeable and, Esqy, the lack of clutter, it is just remarkable.
