This mouse worked well for a long time and suddenly it would stop working. After unplugging for a long time or rebooting the computer it would work again. I tried it on a different computer and it did the same thing. It was working for 2 days and then stopped working. After the Microsoft laser/optical mouse stopped working I plugged in the track ball mouse I usually use with this laptop it was not working either. It always works so it appears to be a driver issue possibly. The touch pad on the laptop still works. These both use a USB connection. Looking at the device and driver information through control panel it says everything if working. I am 95% confident that if I reboot the computer both of them will work again.
