| Utrak doesn't move straight. |

| monkey puzzle:
I just fitted and connected my Ultimarc trackball to my cp. Everything seemed to work ok, but then I noticed that if I use it to move the mouse pointer something strange happens. If I spin the ball fast upwards, the pointer moves staight upwards, but then curls off to the left before it stops. Similarily, when I spin the ball in another direction, the pointer seems to follow a similar curved path. If I roll the ball slowly it moves in a perfect straight line. I haven't tried using the ball in a game yet, so I don't know if this would effect gameplay. I just want to know if this is normal. I haven't contacted Ultimarc yet because I'm not sure if this is a problem or not. Has anybody else experienced anything like this? |

You need to give it some time to break it in. |

I don't recall if my Utrak curved like you describe but it defiantly was a bit 'clunky' when I first got it. It would jump or clunk when spun fast. It breaks in fairly quickly and is smooth now. |

Ok thanks, I'll give it some time. I wonder what it is that actually "breaks in". Is it the bearings maybe? |

My Utrack was perfect out of the box... Maybe you can take it apart and reseat the bearings. It should roll perfectly smooth... |
