I have a generic usb mouse that works for 10 seconds and then stops working.
1. Device manager doesnt show problems
2. The red light under the mouse still flashes
3. I took it a part and didnt see any burns or.
unattached wires
4. I have tried the mouse on 4 different.
computers and still the same thing.
Has anyone had this problem and was able to fix it?
Does it work in Safe-Mode? Does it work OK in Live Environment?

In safe mode it works for about 10 15 seconds and then the mouse pointer is at a stand still while the light at the bottom of the mouse blinks.
- Mouse may have a broken wire in the cable?
- Could be a driver issue?
- Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power - Uncheck it?

- In Search >Type cmd > Right click on cmd.exe and select Run as administrator
2. In the window type in: sfc /scannow
- Chipset Drivers installed?
- Is the device compatible with USB 3.0? try plugging in USB 2.0 port
Alright ill give it a try. Thank you again britec.
We can close the thread because it seems like the possible fixes you listed is about all there is.
I dont know why i have a hard time finding the word to type for searching for computer stuff well most of the time anyway lol
Thanks again britec
Just use simple logic? what really can be wrong with the mouse?
- Its broke?
- Needs Driver?
- Faulty connection or broken wire? (same for headphones)
- Motherboard Drivers need to be installed for USB to work right?
- Mouse is not backward compatible?
Pretty simple diagnosis really. You answered most of it yourself by saying it don't work in 4 computers lol.
The answer is right there staring at you right in the face.
