VERY WEIRD.. Problem..
 

Got a very queer, weird problem.. I dunno if any of you still play "quake - QuakeWorld" but hey it ownz.

Whilst I am playing, everything will be fine.. then all of a sudden my mouse will start spinning out of control, shooting everywhere, moving everywhere and I will start spamming ":)"...

Now, people have said it was my mouse (which is an a4 tech ps2, 2 button pos).. but the only ":)" bind I have is on my keyboard.. then I unbound it and it kept doing it..

I have absolutely NFI what is going on :(

And I havnt tried other games ... but qw is all I play..!!

Any ideas :|?

I have used adaware, and tried a few small suggestions by people.. but to no luck, and unfortunantly... formatting is out of the question.

It even seems to do it in other games and in windows...

To quote you,
I think that would be a "My mouse is old, and starting to break" problem. I don't quite understand what you mean by, "but the only ":)" bind I have is on my keyboard.. then I unbound it and it kept doing it.."

Anyways, I too will follow the answers from the other "people" and say your mouse is just a *tad* out of date.
EDIT
Seems a bit odd but it looks as if we have the same birthday... GO US!!

Haha cool :)

What I mean, is that I have a key on my keyboard bound to say :)... and whenever I have my 360's with my mouse and its going all spastic, I spam my ":)" bind..

Help!!

in otherwords, its not just my mouse.. keyboard to..

That seems to happen when you plug/unplug the PS2 connector for your mouse or keyboard and the hardware gets confused. So it might be a loose connection somewhere? Sorry I don't have any more detail but that sounds like what it is to me....

could it be lag? I've noticed my controls go nuts when I get lag sometimes.

Naw, it's not lag :)
