Hi all,
This is really frustrating when your mouse dies or stops responding for few seconds. And the nit responds. And if this happens a lot, you feel like throwing your mouse away. That's what i felt when this happened to me. I spent almost a week for solution. With no success, i re-installed OS (win 7 and 8) two times in a single day. This also dint help me at all. At last, i found the solution. Like mentioned in other blogs, the reason could be any. So it is not necessary that what worked for me will work for you, but you can give it a try.
Cause
Root of my cause was due to USB root setting in device manager. It allows the machine to turn off the device. Like if to control power or to save power, the device can be stopped by the machine. This was the cause for my problem. I dont know how, but it was working perfectly before couple of weeks.
This is what i did step by step.
1) Open your device manager. Right click on computer > manage > This will open "Computer Management" screen.
2) Click on "Device Manager" on left menu. this will give you list of all the devices installed on your pc/laptop.
3) Locate and expand "Universal Serial bus Controller". Normally this will the last one in the device list. Expand this.
4) Right click on "USB ROOT HUB" and select properties.
5) There is a "Power Management" tab on this property window, usually the last tab.
6) You will see a check box for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" This is checked by default. Uncheck it and click on OK button.
This is how i solved my problem. Hope this will help some of you having same problem.
