USB Mouse Doesn't Respond (Sometimes...)
I am experiencing an annoying problem with my Intellimouse Explorer 4.0.
Sometimes when I boot up the computer, the mouse is simply not responding at all. It is listed correctly in the device manager and Windows reports that it is working properly. The POST screen shows that the bios detects it as well. However, once I get into Windows XP it's as if there was no mouse connected at all. I have to unplug it and then plug it back in to get it to function. This has me very puzzled, as sometimes the mouse will work perfectly. This will continue for a few days and then it cuts out again. I should also point out that I didn't always have this problem – it seemed to start only very recently. The only major change I've made to my system lately has been a bios upgrade a few weeks ago. I don't think that's the cause, though, because the bios seems to notice the mouse, as I mentioned above. The USB ports don't seem to be at fault here. And I haven't heard of anybody else with this motherboard/bios revision having this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------- Asus K8V SE Deluxe (Bios v1004) Windows XP SP2 MS Intellipoint 5.2 ---------------------------------------------------------- Any help would be most appreciated, Al |

I had the same problem with 2 Intellimouse explorers. Scrapped them and bought Logitech, no problems since. Newfdog |

You could try cleaning the bottom and re-installing drivers.
My intellimouse 3.0 died after about 9 months. Sometimes would do the same as yours,other times it would be really erratic an impossible to use. Junked it and bought a Logitech mx510. I've only had it a couple months,but Im really happy with it. The best part is the 8 programmable buttons. They can be set to any key you like.

Try using different usb ports. Or use the adaptor "YanquiDawg" wrote in message ... You could try cleaning the bottom and re-installing drivers. My intellimouse 3.0 died after about 9 months.
