How to clean a Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000

The (keyboard and mouse) worked perfectly for the last four years, but today the function of scrolling the mouse begins to fail and I suspect that the failure is due to debris inside the housing.

1 should I attempt to disassemble and clean & if so, do you have instructions?

2 should I remove the battery and give it a bath in isopropyl alcohol or other recommended fluid?

3. other reccomendations?

4. If I buy a replacement mouse, it will pair with the existing transmitter/receiver?

Thanks for any help

Geoff

Sorry for the delay in responding.

The mouse is more under the guarantee of several years.

Impossible to extract tamper proof screws... guess it IS inviolable.

Clean the bits that I couldn't with isopropyl alcohol, but then the stretched rubber ring and intermittently capture and probably due to the loss of aromatic compounds.

Get sick of all this and bought a tactile mouse that just arrived today. Definitely additional value their loot!

Thnks a lot to all of you who responded... it is a great forum.

In the basic settings select the button on the wheel and select the option 'Middle-click '. After you make this selection, the mouse x and the keyboard focus screen and select 'apply' on the mouse properties screen and select ok. This helped my wheel button be held down and use the "pan" in AutoCAD.

  • Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000 - strange behavior

    Hello

    I recently purchased this mouse (not the model of Laser and BlueTrack), but in some situations, it behaves strangely. In Winamp, it's difficult scroll down - I don't know how this is possible, but scrolling down in Winamp is extremely slow (for example playlist down once some time during the downscrolling), but the scrolling works very well. This place only in winamp in other programs scroll works OK.

    The following problem is connected with internet browsers - I tested Mozilla Firefox and IE7, but the problem is the same. When a page loads, the movement of the cursor is very jerky and it is almost impossible to work with her. It is also unstable when a page is loaded, but the browser is reduced to the minimum. It is very annoying, and the main reason why I write here.

    I am sure that this is related to the mouse with my ex we (A4tech X750BF) everything works perfectly. My computer specs are:

    Laptop Asus M70VR (Intel Core2Duo P8400, 4 GB RAM, disk HARD 2 x 320 GB)
    Service Pack 1 of Windows Server 2008 Standard x 64
    6.3 IntelliMouse (from CD) and 7.0 (downloaded) 64 x tested

    I'm pretty disappointed with the buy, because I also have natural 4000 ergonomic keyboard which is a fantastic piece of hardware. Please help me solve this problem. Thank you in advance and sorry for my English.

    Hello

    I tried some people, but I think that I come to the root of the jerky behavior. For my internet connection, I use Huawei E220 3G modem. It is generally connected next to the wireless receiver, but when I plugged in on the other side of my laptop (I had 2 USBs on the left and two on the right side), the problem disappeared. If the unstable behavior was probably caused by interference with my modem. But the strange 'scrolling' winamp is still there. In fact, I tried the mouse of a computer with Windows XP Pro SP3 (withou installation IntelliMouse) and scrolling in winamp was OK...

  • The Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000 has a power button or an auto-turn off function when you use it,

    I am interested in buying one for use on a desktop PC, then the transmitter/receiver must be connected all the time...

    Mouse Wireless a usually - ON / OFF switch or the automatic stop function.

    And because this mouse is not to have ON / OFF switch, so it must have auto power-off function - and this function is independent of the question whether the radio is placed in the mouse, or even on your computer (plugged) attached.

    And sometimes - if the mouse goes into power saving mode - you must first press the button of the mouse to wake up.

  • Microsoft Wireless mouse not working not properly in Excel.

    Reference: Microsoft Wireless 5000 foam

    I use the foam buttons in Excel to navigate backward/forward "TABs". It is very useful and is in fact the reason to get a 2 buttons and scroll mouse 4-way.

    BUT... it does not work with this Wireless foam 5000. He has worked with my old Logitech... that would mean Microsoft foams are not completely compatible with Microsoft Software?...

    I downloaded the latest version of IntelliPoint v8.1.239.0 but nothing has changed.

    Any idea?

    It seems that there are some 8.2 updated drivers for the mouse on the Microsoft Wireless Mouse 5000 Technical Support page.  It might be useful to install to see if it solves the problem.

  • Dead zone wheel 3000 Microsoft wireless mouse

    Hello

    I don't know how find this problem on the internet so I wonder if anyone can help make me the right words to look for this problem.

    I have Windows Vista Ultimate x 64 and a 3000 Microsoft wireless mouse

    When I scroll with the wheel, if I go down and upward, there is a dead zone where nothing happens.  I rotate part 2 wheel lines, and on the other to scroll.

    For example if I scroll in IE, everything is fine until I have stop and reverse the first line and then nothing happens, no scrolling at all and when I'm in the second row, it starts to scroll the means that if I scroll and down just 1 line nothing happens and that means on both sides , which means only 2 lines of scrolling that does nothing.

    I checked all the configurations of driver for the mouse, and there is nothing about it.  I don't want this dead on the mouse wheel zone

    I would really appreciate links, ideas on this subject.  I don't know if it's a driver problem, a hardware problem or it's just the way the mouse works.
