I bought a Razer Deathadder some weeks ago, it's not even a month old I think and it's starting to develop a really annoying issue...
Once in a while when I only click once it performs a double click...
And by once in a while I mean like 1 in 10-15 clicks or so.
Is this a hardware problem? Is it common?

I tested this one out by sliding the sensitivity meter of the double click speed to fastest (meaning clicking ultrafast to perform a double click), I clicked very very slowly and it performed a double click...

I doubt the drivers cover something as mundane as that. AFAIK, all these mice are plug and play. Drivers just get you the extra features.

Reinstall the drivers nonetheless but its probably a problem with the mouse. Better dig out that warranty.
