Need serious mouse help ASAP :S

[wolverine1190]

so my stepmom is a serious neatfreak and germophobe *sp*... so i guess the idea of there being any dirt whatsoever in the mouse at our pc freaked her out or something. so she takes the screw out of the bottom of the mouse and proceeds to disassemble the mouse... springs when flying and pieces fell out. i managed to find all the parts, and now i have two springs, a piece of black plastic, and the scroll wheel that need to be put back in. from what im assuming, all of them allow the function of the scroll wheel. so pretty much i need to know how to put it back together. if anyone knows how, let me know.

the mouse is a standard dell mouse that came with our pc. i will have pictures up as soon as i can. if someone knows what to do without seeing pictures, let me know what to do! thanks

EDIT: heres the links to the pictures of what i have going on. two of the pictures are of the same piece, just showing a different side/angle of it.

I agree with JDbennet... If shes that obsessed with dirt then just buy a new mouse every few months , they're sooo cheap for a basic one and it will keep her happy all day long.

same goes for the keyboard if you're that obsessed

btw if its a newish dell, it will only have usb, no ps/2 ports, so be sure to get the right peripherals

blah, you can get a new mouse for even less than $10.

do you have any computer stores near you?
