Elliptical Marquee Selection Tool going nuts

Since the recent update my marquee tool is going nuts. I have a fixed size that I use regularly and use Shift + Alt to centre the tool. But it's flickering and stuttering and 'sticky.' And when I release the shift and alt it moves back to the default position which is right at the bottom right of my screen. Whats going on? Any ideas? Tks.

Try it without the Shift key. If the fixed size you set is not a circle, the two conflicting instructions could be the issue.

Thanks Jane, it only seems to be doing it with the circle, with and without the shift key.  It wasn't a problem until the recent update but I haven't seen anyone else complaining of the issue which is bizarre.  Maybe it's my mouse (but if that was the case why not with other actions?).

 

What drives me more nuts though, is the scrolling up and down that occurs long after I have zoomed in and out - I have to wait for it to finish before I can grab the screen and move it back to the correct position.  Seriously, this makes me livid, as it interrupts with my smooth work flow.  Any ideas?
