    kinda pissing me off now... i go through about 2 mice per month. sometimes more.ive had logitech ... microsoft... and a few other brand names ( usualy the cheaper ones seem to last a bit longer).

    anyways.... they work fine for a few weeks then they ALWAYS without fail keep disconnecting / re connecting some times the lazors dont come on but the clicks still work.... and the other way round... and other times its just completely ruind.

    everything else (keyboard etc) works fine, ive never had to replace anything else other then the mice.

    they are USB 2.0 if that helps? o.o

    is it worth me buying more mice? o.o help please!

    A shot in the dark
    It may not be the mice but the USB port--shorting or just not receiving enough power to run the mouse/hub

    Have you tried a different usb port ---(basic I know ...you may have tried this)

    I have no idea to check voltage... stick around a while and someone willl chime in

    Just for further information...

    Are the mice themselves no longer operable on other systems once they are ruined on yours? Or are they simply no longer functional on yours but still work elsewhere?

    Another shot

    Could this be a driver problem as the keyboard working on the same usb port that kills the mice(s) rules out a hardware problem.

    A head scratcher, please keep us updated on progress
