I just tried turning off my mouse acceleration off and it did not make any difference……..
and >>……………here is what someone else told me…………>No it’s not your mouse. Apparently it’s the same bit a code that has been passed down through several versions of the program without being adjusted to take account of faster procesor speeds.
Hopefully this will be addressed in CS3.
this may explain why the problem exists,,,although I still don’t know and I hope photoshop put out a fix for it in a new update to change PS9 to v9.0.3

yes there are advantages using ‘Full screen mode with menu bar’ mode……….one is that when working on the extreme edges of the image the tools work a lot easier………….except only for the Rectangular Marquee tool………which makes the image fly off the work area. ………….so far my best way to avoid this happening is to reduce the size of the image so that the Marquee tool does no get close to the edge of the screen , which makes the marquee tool scroll the image off the screen……………..
what I did was go in General preferences…….>>> and tick the box that say…….Zoom with scroll wheel……….by doing this , I can quickly zoom to a small image size any time I want to use the marquee tool. ……..but this is only a remedy and not a fix.
This problem did not occur in my PS 7……….only in my CS2.

I was able to reproduce it here too.
It seems that in ‘Full screen mode with menu bar’ mode, PS treats the image as if it is on a larger canvas.
The only fix I could find was simply not to use that screen mode. Are there any advantages to using that mode vs. the standard screen mode with a maximized window? The small loss of real estate to the window ‘frame’ is a fine tradeoff to stop the annoying scrolling action.
Is this a Windows problem or on Mac’s too?
have you looked into the mouse acceleration speed? and other choices in the mouse driver interface?
have you loaded a mouse specific driver (check for an updated version for your model) not just the default OS one??
in my mouse driver I can select different ways of scrolling and one of the methods it uses is to speed up the movement (acceleration) as you move it (maybe shut that off?)
another to auto find the buttons on a gui, controls speed and variables of the wheel.etc
I don’t have CS but I notice this "jumping" in CS too, I wasn’t thinking it was a PS error though but a mouse movement issue???
