mouse shorting out

[Gracodana]

my mouse (perixx-2000x) has started to short out and wierdly it happens more often when I do something demanding eg it might short out for a sec or two when internet browsing or an undemanding game but if I play somthing like planetside 2 it shorts out for 1-10 seconds and happens very often.
I have had the mouse for about 1 year
please hep it's driving me crazy!

I had that problem with my Cyborg R.A.T 7 and it turned out the laser was beginning to fail.

try another mouse. if the same thing happens you need to look at the usb.
reason for it can be that you have been running an external hdd that requires more volts than usb can deliver of 1 controller.
or like above says the mouse is failing...

its definitly the mouse I tried it on 3 out of 4 usb ports on my laptop and one on my desktop and though one on my laptop is a bit loose they all worked fine with another mouse I had, thanks for the suggestions though

would this also cause the LEDs to turn off because when it stops it just turns off and no lights work thanks for your answer I think you might be right

well if its under warranty rma it. other than that all you can do is buy another mouse.

sad to say i looked all over there site and found no warranty information. likely it will be in the box if you still have it. but either way if its less than a year old you may be able to get a replacement from the shop you bought it from even if its online retailer.

all you will need is proof of purchase.
