My mouse has got the shakes!! Help

I had a Microsoft scroll mouse on my computer and would sometimes just start moving to the top of the screen without touching it. If you did move it, it would stop it's upward journey and work fine -- not a big deal, just annoying.

Then, that mouse completely died so I got an Optical Microsoft Intellamouse. Now it has the shakes!! It doesn?t move to the top of the screen like the old one did, it just jumps when trying to move it. Like if I move it to the left it might jump 1/2" to the right, (or up, or down), then snap back to where I was going to begin with. You never know where it is going to go, but it is always close, it never jumps across the screen. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall, changed every setting in every way I can think of, no help.

Now here is the clincher---After my scroll mouse died and while waiting for my Intellamouse to come in, I tried a no-name, cheapo, two button, 10year old mouse, off an old HP I have setting in the corner of my garage, and IT WORKED FINE!!!(or did for the week or so while waiting for the Intellamouse)!!!!!!!!!! 😕

Any ideas???? I like the feel of my Intellamouse and I don't want to give it up. Please help, this is driving me crazy!!!

BTW I am running Win2000 on a Abit KT7-raid with AMD 1G
 
PS2 or USB port mice? I had a problem where my PS2 ports were not in contact with the back plate of the case and was causing a simular problem.
