Why does my mouse pointer disappear?

What causes my mouse pointer?

  • I'll be here on yahoo or some other web page and all of a sudden my mouse pointer will either disappear or it will jump from the bottom of the page to the top. What causes this..??

  • Answer:

    Before you try either of the suggestions listed below, examine your mousepad. If it's dirty, slippery, has cracks, etc. it probably needs to be replaced. 1. If you have a mouse with a good old fashioned ball it might be dirty. Either remove the ball and clean it or get a new mouse. 2. If you have a wireless mouse, it's likely the battery's dying. Replace it. 3. If you have an optical mouse (and option 2 isn't applicable) it could be lag on your computer as optical mouses shouldn't skip. If you're positive it's not lag (lag is when your computer pauses for a fraction of a second to minutes then resumes) try buying a more expensive optical mouse.

Before throwing away a good mouse make sure it's not your mat try using it on a perfect surface first. Make sure you are not using a mouse mat that have a reflective coating, also no printing or design your mouse can see.
