Author Topic: My mouse is being a ripe stuff right now  (Read 1345 times)

Every 20-70 seconds my mouse keeps freezing up for a half-second and then starts working until it freezes again. Sometimes it will stop working completely and I have to take it out and plug it back in again. I've tried reinstalling the drivers multiple times and switching usb ports but nothing is working. I'll plug it in to other PCs and it works fine, however.

The mouse I own is a SteelSeries Sensei.

I've had this problem too. It's the mouse that needs to be replaced

I have a steelseries mouse, make sure the usb port is a 3.0 port

open pls and show inside pcb

It is.

It is.

my guess is some popped electrolytics (smoothing caps)

did you try returning it to the pet store?

I wouldn't return it if I were using it in such a way that I can call it poop

Use PS/2. Never had a problem.


Um, really. The only issue was when the cables of the mouse got cut by age but that's not software problem.

So his solution is to buy a mouse that uses an outdated connector that his mobo might not even have? Why not just get a different USB mouse?

Anyway, did you completely delete the driver before reinstallation? Maybe thats your problem.
