Hey all,

Having a little rodent problem and before I go the whole hog and buy
lots of stuff, I thought I'd ask for opinions.....

Basically, over the last few months, I've been having lots of problems
with different buttons only working intermittantly.....

However, for the past couple of days, I've completely lost the left
button.....

It's not the mouse, as I've got a spare to try.....

I'm using a button swapping utility atm so I've got the left button
functionality on the right hand side.....

I'm thinking this has move to do with the controller chips as I've
tried the mouse in both sockets....

Also, when I bought a Punichello earlier this year, I had to send it
back as it was permanently getting a "down Scroll" from the wheel from
either mouse port.....

So, what are my options......  I have a towered A1200...  are the
mouse control chips replaceable (are they 8520's ???) or should I do
the decent thing and buy a new motherboard to fit into the tower
alongside my other stuff ?

Thanks in advance,

Rob
