    Probably just a simple solution, but if anyone can help i would appreciate it. I have a Dell XPS M1330 with wireless mouse which has worked great for months. Til now. The red laser light is on, batteries are fresh, touchpad on laptop working well, but mouse won't drive cursor. Running Vista. Help!

    I heard of some problems with new patches in Vista. Supposedly, the USB-port-using devices (mouses, keyboards etc.) stopped working after installing the patch. Run a search on forums, you should find the topic ;o

    I've been experiencing the same thing with my Logitech G7. I updated the Setpoint software today and the mouse seems to be behaving better now. We'll see long term.
