USB Mouse disconnects

#1 Post by swam1231 » Sun Oct 07, 2007 12:13 am

Hi.. I have a Lenovo 3000 - N100 0768 HCQ bought a month before... Frustrated of the touch-pad pointing device, I got a Zebronics USB Mouse... When I connect it to my Lenovo, it works for some time but then stops working after, say 2 or 3 minutes... I browsed thru net and found some other USB related problems with Lenovo but this is not like those things where USB devices get disconnected once a USB kbd is used or on resuming frm sleep.. Can anyone please suggest a solution..
P.S: The USB mouse is functioning well with my desktop...

Is this just happening with that particular mouse? Are you running Vista? Does it do it on all the ports? If you unplug it and immediately plug it back in does it resume normal operation? Does it quit while you are using it or only when it's idle?

No.. I tried 2 others.. Same result...

Yes.. Vista Home Basic... It came preloaded...

Yes.. In all 4 ports...

Yes.. It does resume normally but again after a few seconds, it freezes.. The time to freeze varies from few seconds to couple of minutes..

It freezes on either of the situations..


BTW, I tried that particular mouse with my desktop and in one of my roomie's laptop.. Its working fine... Both my desktop and my roomie's laptop are running on Windows XP...

It sounds like it could be an issue with Vista's drivers. Try updating/re-installing the USB drivers I absolutely detest Vista, so unfortunately I can't help too much there. If it gives too much an issue I'd contact Lenovo (as much of a pain that may be), as it could be bad USB ports.

Thanks for the pointers... I tried Lenovo support too a couple of weeks back... That guy is asking me to re-install the pointing-device driver software :x :x

Currently hunting for the USB drivers...
