USB Mouse has Delayed Response

I have a Gateway notebook computer with a built-in navigation pad or whatever you call it.  I bought a Logitech optical mouse cause I'd prefer to a mouse instead.
The mouse has a delayed response of a couple of seconds very often. I think this is because I need to designate the mouse as my pointer instead of the built-in pad.  Can someone guide me through the steps on how to do this? I went to the Logitech website and followed their instructions but they indicate to navigate to certain folder names that don't even exist on my computer.  Thanks

Are you using USB or PS/2 ports for the mouse?

I wound up buying a new mouse (also Logitech) and it works fine.  The mouse I was using prior was also new but was sitting around a couple of years.  Maybe had older software or something.  I'm trashing the mouse that gave me the problems. Thanks.
