    You can try cleaning your trackball.
    Turn the 8830 off.
    Hook a fingernail under the silver ring that holds the ball in place and pop it off.
    Turn the 8830 over and the trackball will fall out.
    Then use a q-tip dipped in alcohol to wipe the cavity.
    Clean the roller pickups on the trackball as well.
    Reassemble and turn it back on and see if that helped.
