Like Elaine says probably needs cleaning turn your mouse upside down turn the ring where the ball is and remove the ball clean all dirt off the direction bars and the wheels replace ball and secure with the ring and try that Paul

It uses a light to show the movements, instead of a ball :) Less chance of it sticking - the only way this one sticks is if there's gunk on the bottom, which you can easily clean off.

Get an infared one :) They don't cost very much anymore. You can get them at PC World, but I'd suggest a smaller computer shop, who'll have a better brand at a lower or similar price.

Take the little ball out, with your nail, scrape off any gunk on the little bars and wheels inside That sometimes helps Elaine x
