NFS III: Jerky Mouse

To all, My mouse is VERY jittery in the menu portions of NFS 3, to the point where I must rely on the keyboard to navigate. I am using a Logitech Wheel mouse with latest drivers. I also have the latest drivers for my video (Diamond stealth II G460) and DirectX6. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. -- Tim, Angela, Liam and Jared Robinson Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada

I too have that same problem and also a Logitech wheel mouse. I just got use to it. <shrug> and used the keyboard for the menu stuff.

I have a Logitech Mouseman+ and had the same problem as you...very jittery. I recently upgraded to Windows 98 and the problem was gone. later Sean

Make that 3 of us with the wheel mouse and the same problem. I agree. Just use your arrow keys and put up with it. Funny thing though ... it only happens in the main menu screen.

From the T/S desk at EA. do a ctrl+alt+del from the desktop, "end task" on Em_exec (thats the Logitech driver that controls the wheel and extra buttons), bingo. smooth mouse. >Make that 3 of us with the wheel mouse and the same problem. I agree. Just

Kenny, Thanks, that worked. At least EA got back to one of us. I emailed there tech support from their WWW page over a month ago. Gotta love customer service.
