    Logitech Setpoint 5.20.51

    I have a VX Nano and a Bluetooth mouse and both are not detected by the Setpoint software, and do not show the tab to change settings for these devices. They do work by default, but not being able to customize them means I cannot reassign buttons or adjust sensitivity levels.

    Anyone else having problems with the Logitech Setpoint software detecting your Logitech Mouse on the Alienware m14x?

    I am having an issue with my bluetooth mouse. It's a Logitech MX1000 and for some reason it disconnects for no reason and the only way to get it to reconnect is to turn it off then back on.
    Seems to happen at least once a night and I can almost force this problem by starting a game and waiting about 2 mins. I cannot firgure out if it's my mouse or the bluetooth mod. Oddly enough my Setpoint software shows the mouse connected even after it disconnects.

    Check device manager to see if you have the 'Microsoft Bluetooth' or the 'Dell 375 Bluetooth'.

    If you did a recent reinstall and didn't install that driver - this may be causing your problem.

    My Device Manager Lists both, Dell 375 Bluetooth and a Microsoft Bluetooth... Think I should delete both and do a reinstall of just the dell drivers?
