Also I just got a new mouse(with built in fan, and its awesome, not to mention the LED's!) and I also got a mousepad(with acrlic rimming and more LED'S!)

The mouse is a optical mouse, and the mouse mad is a smooth FLAT black pad. The mouse works fine on a regular surface(my desk) but does not work on the mouse pad, I have NO clue why this would be happening, any guesses? My other optical mouse works fine on the mouse pad.

wat type of surface is the mouse pad..maby the surface of the mouse pad is distorting the optical light thingy of the mouse. for example laser mice dont work well when used on a glass surfaces becuase the glass distorts the laser.

Usaaly they wont just not acurate and it kind of messes up, but this is diferent doesn't move at all. I'm not sure the actull materal that its made of but as dsaid its a FLAT black, no clear coats or anything, thats why i was so confussed, and even more since my other optical mouse works on it.

Why do you need a mouse with a fan in it? I got like a $30 optical mouse with no bells and useless whistles and it works great!

On the other hand the scanner you posted looks like a good choice

cell4me · 01-07-2006, 02:22 AM

Oh and for your mouse see if there is some kind of sensitivity setting, either on the mouse or in the software that come with it!

Xycron · 01-07-2006, 02:28 AM

I'll try uping the senitivy ALOT, but i dont think it'll help, and the fan actully feel's good, thats why. And It works fine when it's not on the mouse pad lol.

I love the fan affect, Now that i have it I dont think i could ever use a fan-less mouse, and to think when i bought the mouse I thought i would praabally have the fan turned off 100% of the time lol.

Turn the mouse over an hold you fringer by the laser you will see it get brighter when it see's it...now adjust the sensitivity so that the laser see's it when your finger is about 1/4 inch to 3/8 of an inch away, you will have to play with it I had the same problem the black mouse pad absorbs the light or something!
