Another Mouse Freezing Problem

[Guy Thomas]

Problem the mouse freezes. One of those intermittent problems.

Onset may have coincided with installing:

Netgear 108 Mbps Wireless Router Model WGT 624



At first I blamed Outlook 2007. However switching Outlook to safe mode did
not cure the problem.

On inspecting Norton, I spotted the following message:

"an intrusion attempt by 192.168.1.1 was blocked."

Clean install of Vista on a new machine with 1GB Ram

Microsoft Mouse.

Any ideas grateful received

Guy,

Maybe something in this article can provide a clue:

Post back on what happens. People want to know.

Guy,

I looked around the Internet and found a lot of posts where people had
similar problems. Here are a few of the things they said about mouse
freezing:

Are you using Aero Mouse pointers? The latest Nvidia drivers have an
issue with Aero Mouse pointers and will cause the intermittent mouse
cursor issue. Change to another mouse pointer (I'm using Windows
animated and that took care of the problem)

Re: Mouse freezes intermittently
Hi, I had this with a dell and I was told to change the ports the sata
drives were on i.e. instead of ports 2 & 3 I changed them to 3 & 5 and since
then no freezes. Be sure to change this in the bios as well.
Check in Task Manager. Odds are your computer is at 100% and you have to
wait. I had this frequently (mouse freeze) when I was running a 3500+.
Problems solved
with a 5200+.

The Solution (to mouse freezing)

There currently isn't one. We have been trying to figure this out, but to no
avail. It's very likely a nForce 590 USB driver issue, although we cannot be
certain. It is not a mouse driver issue since we tried using the official
mouse driver (from Razer in this case) and the default Windows Vista mouse
driver.

If you can't resolve the problem here, you can try googling around to see
what you find.

192.168.1.1 is the default address of many routers so I suspect that your
router is sending an unsolicited message such as a status ping to your pc
you need to tell Norton to accept messages from it.

Hmm, I just made a post about a similar issue. I have traced my issue
back to my PS2 KVM as when I use the mouse on USB the mouse works
fine. I use PS2 KVM som use adapters on the USB mouse. I notice that
if I isntall the Logitech drivers the mouse is only recognized as
MX518 when connected to USB. I think Vista is just not always seeing
the mouse when it is on the KVM.
