Jumping pick box

Platform: ADT '07 Processor: Pentium D 930 3.0 GHz Ram: 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM Graphics: NVIDIA Quadro FX 1500 pro 256 MB

Sometimes I experience a jumpy pick box. When zooming in to attempt to select one of two or more closely placed lines/objects, the pick box jumps around so badly that I can't select the desired object. The problem doesn't occur all the time, just often enough to be a frustrating. Turning off snaps, grid, osnaps, ortho, otrack, dynamic input and polar does not help. I haven't been able to figure out what causes the pick box to be so erratic. Has anyone discovered a reason and/or solution?

Thanks

What kind of mouse? Are there any speakers, or power supplies near the mouse? I have had this to happen when I had a power supply nearby.

Microsoft intelli-mouse optical - wired (not wireless) No speakers or power source within 3'. And, just like a tooth stops hurting when you get to the dentist office, no pick box problems since posting. That statement will, of course, jinx me and jump-o will return soon.
