i have a intellimouse web. and a keyboardmall.com keyboard. i have updated drivers for both
i have 512mb ram
1.4 gig amd athalon
60 gig hd
the problem is my mouse and keyboard have a mind of their own.
in counterstrike it will seem as if i hit a lag spike but i know its not lag issues cause it does the same with offline games too.ok, so i hit this weird "lag" then my guy will frequently spin in circles (really fast), switch weapons, and look up. what ever buttons on the keyboard i was pressing also stay down, until pressed again.
after a little while of this the mouse stops responding . sometimes my keyboard also stops responding at the same time as the mouse. it happens on my desktop as well. i get the "lag" and all of a sudden my mouse is in the bottom lefthand corner of the screen, or my left click will become right click until i press right click again. m y mouse wheel button is set to scroll. and without touching it the scroll function still comes up randomly on its own. the buttons also trigger themselves without being touched. i leave the house only to come back to a screen with a bunch of windows open and my mouse and keyboard frozen. my pc never freezes. everytime this happens the programs continue running, but i cant use my mouse or keyboard. please this problem came out of nowhere. i didnt hve it 2 months agao and now i do. i've looked everywhere and find a bunch people with similar problems, but no answers. i have formated 2 times and just installed the os and still had the prob. i think it may be hardware related. please help
thank you in advance

I think you should buy a new keyboard and mouse, although that may not be the problem. If the problem arises again, try running it in dos, or the CMOS. This will tell if it is a problem with your OS. If all fails, call your Mobo company, but be careful. They might have an answer. Be sure to check your serial ports!
