My Logitech laser mouse has started to act up.

So any recomendations as a suitable replacement.

TIA  :y :y

Not a bad idea, but dont know if he could do it.  problem would be getting the right button I suppose.

P.S. was'nt doubting your ability Martin, just the replacement parts availability.

£22 at overclockers to get a new one.

As soon as I decide on my new mobo then the mouse can go on the same order. :y
