Mouse Light Stays On After Shutdown

[Chewie]

What does the mouse brand have to do with the motherboard supplying standby power to the mouse?

i've had all kinds of mb's and just one brand of mouse. my logitech never stays lit. pretty gay that it would.

That doesn't mean it's the mouse that's the problem, just that you've not yet had a motherboard supplying standby power.

The lights on my mouse and USB mousepad hub both stay on but that doesn't bother me since I sleep 10 yards away from the computer. I find it handy that the standby supply will charge the PDA in it's cradle when the computer's off.

I'd like a fix as well.

switch to logitech.

I have a Logitech. It stays lit. BFD.
I say if you can't handle it....go back to the roller ball type.

Or turn off the switch to the power supply.

can someone help? tis well annoying!! (its not a USB mouse btw and its optical)

How did you change to a USB slot if it's not a USB mouse?

And btw... The fact that a mouse is optical has nothing to do with how it's connected (PS/2, USB or otherwise).

id rather not have to hassel to turn off the powersupply everyday...id think that could mess it up by changing it from current flow to none to current flow and such...im probably wrong though
