It worked for about five minutes tonight, then stopped. I pulled a cat hair out it, but still no luck. The only troubleshooting advice is to push the "connect" button on the receiver, and then the one on the mouse itself, but I still get nothing.<BR/><BR/>The laptop mouse thingy is driving me nuts--too sensitive, and a mousing area the size of a wallet photo is very limiting.Kate Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03555660993363611776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3104141554191672231.post-60633771452466136262009-01-15T16:50:00.000-05:002009-01-15T16:50:00.000-05:00It's been my expierience that all mice (technologi...It's been my expierience that all mice (technological and otherwise) will just die eventually.<BR/><BR/>Humor aside, every mouse I've ever owned since 1995 has died -- from the $100 Kensington trackball (I really miss that one) to the cheap lasers I keep buying every time one dies out.<BR/><BR/>Is the laser on the mouse still lighting up? If not, I'm sure it's probably dead. Is so, there might be a connection issue between the mouse and the USB dongle. Either way, unless it fixes itself, it's most likely going to be cheaper to replace than repair.Cullenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11668947039713922916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3104141554191672231.post-41872387214485382612009-01-14T19:08:00.000-05:002009-01-14T19:08:00.000-05:00It's tough to troubleshoot remotely, but make and ...It's tough to troubleshoot remotely, but make and model?Dave E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07432598467203071394noreply@blogger.com
