Yet, Another dumb question! I hope not too dumb!
« on: September 11, 2026, 06:29:35 PM »
I've been having he most annoying issue lately with my mouse just falling asleep on me when I'm doing normal things like browsing the net, eBay, or whatever... How can I fix this? I'M GOING TO GO MAD!  :bhead


Thanks! <S> Moeph

If it's wireless, it may just need a new battery.  if it's wired, then try a different port to see if the mouse itself is bad or perhaps the port is wonky.

Yeh, it's wireless, so hopefully it's just a battery problem. Isn't there a spot on the control panel to select mouse settings?
