So go back to solution number one. Or Drink more. It won't be as noticable.  Wink

Maybe redo the drivers? The old ones might be corupted. I know some things just get that way after a while.

Just a thought.

I kind of had the same problem with my Trackman Marble+. Thats the older White or creamish colored one. It would make the screen all jittery when I would scroll and then it would go away. I bought one of the new one that are USB for my wifes computer. About a month ago it started acting up again so I unplugged the The older one and tried the new one and everything worked good again. But to make sure I plugged the old one back in and it started acting like crap so I went out and bought a new one and haven't had a problem yet. But I'll warn ya if you have the older one that is white you'll have to get used to the new shape. I miss my old one (RIP) I had it since 1999.

Just from the basic description, it sounds like you are having a video driver problem. I know when I am doing work on computers and don't have the video drivers setup properly, it will make any scrolling through pages really choppy and crappy looking. Might wanna start with redoing your video drivers.

No. 6 months old is an antique. 5 Years old would be ancient.
