Title: Laser mouse keeps disconnecting from Usb
Post by: Frankie on July 18, 2013, 10:01:46 AM

I have a Perixx laser mouse and every so often I hear the windows sound that it has disconnected from the usb (link below).  My mouse become unresponsive for a short while until I hear the sound that it has reconnected and all works fine again. I would say it just does it randomly just now and then, but I cannot figure out whats wrong with it. I have tried some fixes that I thought would help, like changing it to a different usb port and I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. I also looked on their website and it tells you to just use the window driver, so there is no manufacture driver for it. The only other thing I could think of is that I use a hard mouse mat and sometimes it gets oily from using it by hand. Do you you think this could cause it? That maybe the laser has run over a oily surface or something?

Possibly the mouse is faulty; have you tried it on another computer, and tried a different mouse?
