Wireless Mouse + New Batteries = Crazy Computer

[Felix_Nietsche]

I use a wireless mouse and I use rechargeable batteries. I have noticed that sometimes when I change the batteries my computer goes crazy. The symptoms are:

1. The computer scroll jumps up and down very rapidly.
2. When playing online poker, random numbers start spewing out where I can not select the size of my bet (I play no limit). When this happens I place the mouse pointer over the bet button and click hoping to choose the raise that I want.

When I change to standard batteries or a different pair of rechargeable batteries this seems to fix the problem. Perhaps I have a faulty mouse or faulty batteries.

Anyone have any insight into this problem?

PS
I have a Microsoft wireless mouse and I use Duracell Rechargeable Accu batteries.
