turn it over, twist the bottom plate near the ball (you'll see what i mean) and remove the rubber coated ball and you'll see a bunch of rollers. Use your nail or something semi sharp to break the gunk off it them all and bang the mouse on a table or something to dislodge anything else in there. You can also clean those rollers with a swab and rubbing alcohol.
make sure your using a clean mouse pad and not some dirty surface.

Firstly unplug your mouse from the PC and get to hand a soft tissue. Notice the removable cover on the bottom of the mouse. Turn the mouse cover anti-clockwise to release the ball, remove the cover and take the ball out. Use the soft tissue to clean the mouse ball, be sure to remove all dust/hair/debris.
Next, notice the 3 rollers within the mouse casing, these are what we need to clean.
You can improvise on how to clean the rollers, using your fingernail gets good results, if the mouse hasn't been cleaned before then you will see lots of dust on the rollers, whichever way you choose to clean them make sure you remove all traces of dust/debris as the smallest piece can cause the mouse to behave erratically.

Turn your mouse over. Remove the round cover and rubber ball. Clean the ball. Inside is two wide rollers and one narrow one. Clean them.

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
