I know about as well as I'd assume everyone else knows, that normal mice suck. They manage to accumulate all this gunk underneath. I thought an optical mouse would be a better soloution however, the thing is equally annoying.

Everytime I would move the cursed piece of junk, the mouse would at any random moment, dart all over the screen. Most of the times, it would point at one of the the upper corners of the screen and cause me to close out of my current program.

How do I fix this?

Seems to be more of a hardware thing... happens to me too. Not matter what OS you're using.

It could either be crummy hardware (what brand is it?) or worn-out optics. My original Intellimouse Explorer did the same thing, until I upgraded to a newer hardware revision (and then I stopped buying Microsoft mice altogether because the buttons wear out way too fast).

My current mouse is a Logitech MX310, which has better tracking precision than basic optical mice (and it shows). It's also fully compatible with Microsoft's driver/software suite, so swapping out my Intellimouse was a non-issue. I highly recommend it.

Do you have cats? Sometimes a cat hair will get up in there and make it act like that.

Thatīs the same mouse I have and Iīve had no major problems with it. Except when one of my games froze and closed down. My mouse rocketed up to the left upper corner.

It was just to close the game to make it wokr again but it was a similar problem.

The mouse could want light surfaces. I know dark or patterned surfaces tend to screw things with the mouse. Use something with a uniform light color, like a white sheet of printing paper. If your mouse still does weird things on white paper, then the mouse most likely has issues has white is supposed to reflect things perfectly
