problem with USB wireless mouse

Try it on another computer. Maybe the batteries died or the thing just failed at that exact moment.

well, this never ending saga continues..

I drained out the battery completely, then recharged it for a few hours.. (should be plenty of time for it to be full)

Im not even sure this had anything to do with the problem, but now I am able to plug in my mouse receiver into the USB port and it activates... theres one MAJOR problem which is still highly annoying.. now when I move the mouse, it only scrolls from side to side.. it will not register any up-down movements at all..

any suggestions as to what would be causing this? Im about to say forget it and go drop $30 on another!

I think your diagnosis is correct, doctor.

Wonder why the damn thing decided to die right THEN.

Have you gone into the Hardware Manager and removed the drivers and reinstalled. Sounds like a driver config issue.
