In a much easier to understand situation:
A friend asked me to "fix" his computer, as the mouse has become quite
temperamental.
It seemed to work fine at night, but was all but unusable during his
daytime usage.

I got there in the daytime, and found the computer desk right in front
of a window. I just closed
the shades, and the mouse worked well again. This was a mechanical
mouse with optical
encoders for each axis, and a really cheap plastic case.

I wish all my troubleshooting went that easy. :)
