what would you do without the scroll wheel?!?

aiight, so ive recently had a computer catastrophe. the scroll wheel on my computer no longer works. i can click for the whole auto scroll effect, but ive gotten new drivers and progs - but to no avail. if i wanted a mac mouse, i could use one. my scroll wheel keeps me alive tho, help! late/

oh and it only seems to screw up in internet pages, i think it works everywhere else - but im at TA 90% of the time...need scrolling!

try downloading this prog, its the microsoft intellipoint driver, for their mouses - it would only work if uve got a microsoft mouse, but if u aint got one it could still be worth a try.

i haven't had a scroll-wheel mouse yet! you need to NOT use them so you don't get used to them

Why don't you just hit the "down" arrow key on your keyboard? You know, the one that looks like this: \/
It moves you down the page almost the same way as a scroll wheel, in fact, sometimes when I'm lazy, I use that key instead of that scroll wheel!, LOL!
I do that about 50% of the time when my scroll wheel doesn't move right or it's sluggish!

not sure what the problem is...
but, the scroll feature is VERY convenient...
it's makes life much easier and faster...

i love the scrollwheel

i would never go back to having a mouse without one

my mouse and keyboard are also cordless, which is good

except when the batteries run out

OMG i know it would suck ultimately if there were no scroll...
but you could always use the keyboard to "scroll" down all the posts n such
