Problems with the new computer.
-
Thanks Pete, this must be from a newer version of Photoshop. There have been 3 or 4 since version 7.
And I will definately not touch the BIOS. I fear screwing something like that up.Well as it stands now the only problems I seem to have are the flickering in Photoshop (only on color images) and the wheel mouse button... I can orbit just fine until I wheel out or in more than once. Then I have to click the wheel button twice before I can orbit. Then it will orbit fine again. Hmmm.

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.
-
Only a pleasure, glad you can get to work now.
many Form Font subscribers need 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.

Sounds good to me, I will be in Huntsville visiting in-laws and some outlaws this summer, maybe we can get a beer together.
-
This has been almost like a movie... I would never have guessed that it was the mouse...
Glad it had a happy ending...I sure felt with you, Eric, when you said...

Honestly I feel like I am reading another language... how do I check this?

... be sure to tune in next week for the episode 'TBD and his almost same setup'
Boofredlay: we are waiting for the "behind the scene" clip (= how is the new computer flying)

We should rename this thread Mouse Tale.

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
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.
About nine mice in all. -
Ah...the dread intellipoint software bug again: you got off easy, my friend!
-
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.
-
Ok thanks Bruce. Sorry I misunderstood, I am a bit on edge today if you could not tell.

@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.
