optical mouse problem?
 

i was given an optical mouse that was working fine until i decided to
clean some gunk of the bottom so it would slide smoother, i used metho
and a spong, now the mouse doesn't want to work properly the curser
moves like a ball mouse when it needs cleaning jerky slowly and
somethimes not at all.

it's a hp mouse

waht have i done wrong or can it be fixed?

you may have moved the dirt into or around the laser or lens, try clening
again with cotton wool buds or chamois leather & cleaning alcohol.
