i've been using the mousepad since i bought it last october. and there was no problem till i RMA it because my sensor died. this mouse i'm using is the RMA-ed one.

i'm gonna try that and also with engine without mousepad. all on the same pc. this steelseries mouse problem is terrible. its not even half a year old and it's shyt.

still got jitter after two days of testing. i will send back to the shop.

I just updated.
1) i cant seem to be able to key in my desired DPI in the settings
2) white looks like it has a slight tinge of blue.
3) cannot upload custom bitmap image
4) laggy
5) after dragging profiles to mouse, it doesn't change in engine (still shows PROFILE 1, PROFILE 2, PROFILE 3....)



i dunno if its the engine but there was some problems when i was updating the firmware. first was "cannot open bootloader device" and the second was "cannot load fw" or something. right after that my pc BSOD. now the LCD looks like this:




i dunno if you guys can see it but there are lines all over the lcd screen. it never used to be like that. I guess I got to RMA it AGAIN?

most probably when I RMA it for the first time, they gave me a faulty one. I even had to chase them. They took so long to replace it. I won't be buying a steelseries anymore.

I bought mine from ModernoPC. i just dropped it back for RMA.
some forummer mentioned that they might give me the ones that have been RMA-ed. dunno how true that is.

I dun know if its a refurbished unit. The mouse came back with my profiles in it. Shouldn't it be default? Also i saw some wear marks on the bottom of the mouse. That can't be new rite? And lastly, I've had nothing but more problems ever since.

That round sticker doesn't guarantee it's brand new, you could buy some and put them on it as well. Even the "play original" sticker also doesn't mean anything to me besides the fact that it's from them. Why? Because they could give me a unit that's newer (not necessarily new) than mine, just as long as the serial number is larger than mine. I wouldn't know what serial number will be considered new rite? There is no way of finding out the corresponding serial number for each manufacturer batch, isn't there? I don't think Play Interactive knows as well. They will be under the impression that it's new as well. However, I am giving them the benefit of the doubt on this one.
I'm not sure if they gave me a refurbished unit. I don't think the distributor would open up any of the mice to replace a fried chip.

Eh bro, you are here. Haha.
Yeah Gavin told me could be software problem. Hope he settles it quickly la. Last time i had to wait more than 3 weeks and i had to pm him here before he sent the unit to you.
This cannot be your fault or to a degree Play Interactive's as well. I'm just lamenting on the QC of the mouse. You know, being RM400 and all..

Who does that? Open every mouse and test it before sending it out. And how much testing is required before these marks appear? I doubt if they have so much time to test every single mouse till there are wear marks.

yeah, could be production fault. I'm sure during production, they just simply throw the skates all over the place before some dude assembles them. Hence the wear marks on the skates and nothing on the bottom of the mouse itself.

i'm not the only one with a buggy sensei

i know your mouse is working but i just wanna share that i had the same problem.

i got back my RMA-ed sensei. brand new, when installing it doesnt blink and when updating it hangs. even crashes my pc. so what i did was i updated first then disconnect and install the SS Engine. do it separately and it shouldn't be a problem. i downloaded the ss update tool from the website.
