<p class="note">Fun fact: two of the "problem" machines turned out to have nothing wrong with the boards at all, a badly soldered CPU socket and a leftover blitter patch bridge were the actual culprits. Moral of the story: check your solder joints twice before blaming the silicon.</p>

<h1>Laser Mouse: Upgrading an Original Atari STM-1 Mouse</h1>
<div class="detail-content">
<p>I converted an original Atari STM-1 mouse into a laser mouse using the Atari mouse laser board. It keeps the original Atari mouse shell and feel, but replaces the old mechanical/optical innards with a modern laser sensor, so the mouse actually tracks well again.</p>
<p>I converted an original Atari STM-1 mouse into a laser mouse using the Atari mouse laser board. It keeps the original Atari mouse shell and feel, but replaces the old mechanical/optical innards with a modern laser sensor, so the mouse actually tracks well again. It isn't currently in use on any machine, so it sits among my unused extensions for now.</p>
<h2>The Atari mouse laser board</h2>
<p>The board is a drop-in upgrade for an original Atari mouse. Instead of the worn-out original mechanism, it uses a laser sensor for smooth, accurate tracking while keeping the classic Atari mouse look. The board is sold by Tim (Lavago) and is available by email order.</p>
