Wireless piece o' shit randomly stopping for 10 seconds

Basically, my MS Wireless Laser 6000 and keyboard – http://i.testfreaks.com/images/products/600×400/201/microsoft-natural-wireless-laser-mouse-6000.9291465.jpg – just randomly stops working when I play TF2. Doesn’t happen off game. Only started recently. It kind of started when I installed chris’ fps config but I think that’s unrelated. Yes I have -high off.

It may happen ever minute or only three times a game (it seems to decrease when I restart TF2), my mouse will stop moving and my keyboard will continue to move in the direction I was moving before it stopped working without responding.

It’s not specifically the mouse since it affects my keyboard to so it’s something to do with the USB receiver but I don’t know what.

Also, yes I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers.

Anyone possibly help?

go and buy a wired mouse, why would you even consider wireless for gaming?

I didn’t consider a wireless mouse. This is the mouse I’ve had for years now and I didn’t buy it. Currently, buying a decent wired mouse isn’t something that I can spend money on and while it’s wireless, it’s been fine up until now. Also, since the keyboard and mouse are a pair, I’d need to buy a keyboard too.

I’d rather just fix this problem and buy a new mouse in the hopefully near future.

Try doing a system restore to when the mouse was working? Maybe it will undo some crappy settings that stop it working? Have you changed batterys, maybe the reciever is being rubbish? Just buy a microsoft intellimouse 3.0 :) its cheap and a quality gaming mouse if all else fails

Bleh, going to buy a new mouse and keyboard next week now. I doubt an answer to the problem is going to pop up here anyway (thanks for the help anyway). And yes, I tried all that.

Sorry to say but the best advice you can get is get a wired gamingmouse+ which keyboard you use probably doesn’t really matter also There’s loads of WHICH MOUSE SHOULD I GET threads on etf2l but they pretty much all say: Razer Diamondback, Razer Deathadder, Logitech MX518 and rarely Microsoft Intelli 3.0, just try and find out which grip you use or if you like small mice or big.. well gl hf

Thanks. Will probably go with the IE 3.0 since I’ve heard it’s quite similar to the deathadder and is also really good while being the cheapest of the bunch. I don’t have £40 to spend on a mouse and then another £5-£10 on a keyboard.
