Erratic Scroll Wheel

[rgvmp3]

It seems the scroll wheel on my much loved Insignia Pilot has become erratic ie the cursor often seems to go in the opposite direction to which it's being turned I saw this coming to be honest.

Is this something that can be easily fixed or is it time to say my good byes and that we had a good run lol

Have a scuba tank? Maybe give it a good blast.

Not sure of your meaning here...

A blast of compressed air might clean out some crud that could be responsible for the erratic behavior. I don't have a scuba tank lying around either.

I now realize what was meant. I guess I got fixated on the Scuba Tank lol While I don't have one, what I did have is one of those compressed air cans used for removing dust of keyboards etc. I went around the edge of the scroll wheel injecting air into the gap. So far it does seem that the scroll wheel has mostly lost its erratic behaviour
