    This may sound stupid as it really is, but I too use a MS optical usb scroll mouse, I had issues with it conflicting with my 3d connexion device and also with MAX (scrolling stuttering) I uninstalled the driver and restarted rig and just plugged it in as a generic scroll mouse and never had an issue again, however that was due to a Vista conflict. It may work for you too, nothing lost if it does not as the mouse will work regardless.

      try inserting a PS2 mouse if you have one and see if it helps.

        The only other mouse in the house is the same model on the old computer. I switched them out and got the same result.

        I will try uninstalling the mouse driver.

          Well, I did not even need to reboot the system. As soon as I removed the Intellipoint 6.1 software the problem was fixed. I can wheel zoom many times and only have to clik once to orbit.

          😍 Pete you are a lifesaver. 😍

          I am going to have to go to work now. I will check in when I get there to see if anybody has more help with the Photoshop flickering.

          Thank you.

              Aww shucks. 😳


              Well what do you know, I decided to check Photoshop one last time and it seems the flickering has stopped.

              It seems that my little mouse was a bit of a troublemaker...

              Pete, the next time I am visiting my mother in Kerrville I will stop through and buy you a steak. πŸ˜„

                  This has been almost like a movie... I would never have guessed that it was the mouse...
                  Glad it had a happy ending... πŸ˜„

                        Sounds great, although I will be drinking tea. I gave up the booze almost 4 years ago and have not looked back. Although over the last couple days a cold one would have settled my nerves 😎

                        Frederik, I am glad my pain has amused you πŸ˜† Just kidding.

                        Alan, I think I can find a few good names for that mouse, or at least the software that came with it.

                        Kind of ironic don't you think... I killed an entire mouse colony that settled into my garage this fall. πŸ˜•
                        About nine mice in all.

                            You warned me didn't you.

                            Edit: Although as soon as I removed the software I left home and am now at work. I wonder if I will find any more glitches tonight.

                              Is it possible that some other software on Toms and Erics system is conflicting with intellipoint 6.1 and it's just showing up in SU? I have it installed, have different button setups for a few programs, and have never had a problem with SU or any other program. Hope I didn't just jinx myself. Anyway just a thought.

                                Mike...seems to be a conflict 6.1 and the newer forceware drivers: do you have an nvidia card?

                                  Even though removing the mouse software fixed the problem?

                                    I was not trying to be.

                                    The thing is on my old machine and on my work machine I have the same mouse without the Intellipoint 6.1 software installed and don't have any problems.

                                    I am not trying to argue I am trying to make sense of it.

                                        @Tom, this will probally piss some people off who just shelled out a few bucks for high end graphic cards. I have intergrated Nvidia graphics 6150SE nForce430 with 623mb total memory of which only 128mb is dedicated and am using the latest driver 169.25. At one point I was thinking of upgrading but I've never had a problem with any of my models because all are pretty small, also there was the column and crowd test skps floating around which I was able to fly through without any problems. So as the saying goes, if it ain't broke..... But the point being is that I am using the latest Nvidia driver and intellipoint.

                                          Darn - it's getting better and better... It's really like following one of those TV series... πŸ˜†
