    My mouse (which I bought only a couple months ago) has recently stopped working altogether (It is a Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse Blue). When I turn on my computer, the receiver comes on as normal but the mouse just doesn't work, also, the red light that comes out the bottom either doesn't come on at all or stays on, blinking (which it never used to do).
    I know it's not the batteries and I have the latest drivers etc installed for it.
    Can anyone help?

    Damn, that must be hard browsing this forum without a mouse

    I'll second Livy, how do you know it's not the batteries?

    You don't need a mouse to browse this site. The keyboard works fine.

    I bet your mouse that you got with your PC has no batteries but is wired.
    Have you checked the PS/2 connector that all the pins are not bent and that it is properly plugged in?
    Is there a reset button on the transmitter? Press it.
    Is there one under or on the mouse? Press it too.
    Try other new batteries again and make sure they are oriented + and -
    If all fails is it still under warranty? Exchange it.

    it does happen

    do a thousand things to solve hardware problems, and all it is is a disconnected wire..
