Members John81 Posted February 28, 2016 Members Share Posted February 28, 2016 Every so often, while the computer is idle, the mouse will freeze up (no, it's not too cold!). The only way I have found to restore its function is to unplug the mouse from the back of the tower and plug it back in. Any idea what is causing this? Any other ways to fix this other than what I've been doing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted February 28, 2016 Administrators Share Posted February 28, 2016 Get a new cordless mouse, they are cheap, no wires to mess with and they work. Ronda 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rosie Posted February 28, 2016 Members Share Posted February 28, 2016 mine just doesn't work at times.. thanks for the tip Jim I will try that too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John81 Posted February 28, 2016 Author Members Share Posted February 28, 2016 Thank you Jim. I've considered that. The main reason I haven't done so is because it's probably getting close to time to buy a new computer. If I decide to keep putting off getting a new computer I will probably pursue the wireless mouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Invicta Posted February 28, 2016 Members Share Posted February 28, 2016 The wireless mouse will work on your new computer, John. I have an old tower on which the mouse freezes and goes to the top left hand corner, and that is a wireless mouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
