I just purchased a Logitech HiRez mouse, which only comes in a bus version.
When running the software (any software -- Logitech or otherwise), the cursor
consistently gravitates towards the right side of the screen, in fact acting
almost as it it were glued there. UNLESS I hold down any of the mouse buttons;
then it moves just fine. Logitech claims this is not their problem but must
be the BIOS. On the other hand, my BIOS (Award v3 on an AT) is one of the
BIOSes they say work with the mouse. I was wondering if anyone has a clue
as to what's going on? I've tried pulling every optional card in the machine
to avoid possible port conflicts, but that made no difference. (BTW, I also
have an old MS serial mouse which works properly.)
Thanks in advance for any help.

BTW, the HiRez mouse has a hard rubber ball, just like the one on my Mac.
I've been quite happy with the Mac mouse since I've put it on a pad, and
although I've checked from time to time, it's never needed cleaning.
The pad also helps the tracking noticeably, compared to a slippery
desk top. A sheet of paper works almost as well.
