Probably an incorrect mouse driver. Open a console, and type "setup" <-- without quotes, choose the Mouse Config option, and try a different driver within your manufacturers options ie: Logitech mouse -> Logitech driver/generic driver, make sure you choose the correct interface also. Once your driver is correct your problems are fixed.
