Question Valorant broke 2 of my Logitetech mice

[random_stuffz92]

I had Logitech G903 wireless mouse for about 8 months and I was playing valorant and out of no where my mouse starts spinning EVERYWHERE all over my screen by itself while mouse is flashing different colors and then after a few seconds, no power.

I tried everything to fix it but no luck. There was always no power. I just assumed it was broken and I got a new one. The G Pro wireless.

I got a new laptop with the g pro wireless and I moved house so everything was new.
I had this mouse for about 7-10 months
I was playing valorant once again and boom. The exact same problem.

I read that too but now my mouse doesn't even work at all.
It doesn't even light up anymore it's completely dead no power.

Does the mouse do anything on another computer (laptop or PC)?

Have you tried different USB ports or maybe plug in after starting back up?

Also: what about manually downloading the mouse drivers directly via the manufacturer's website?

Reinstall and reconfigure.

No third party installers or tools.

Yes, I tried everything already like you both mentioned.
Still no power. @Ralston18 @tecmo34

Have you tried Logitech support to see if they have any suggestions?

I've read some say use Logitech - Unifying Software to "repair" the mouse. I would follow the steps on the screen once installed.

Indeed, do try the repair as suggested by @tecmo34 .

And I am wondering about that "no power".

Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS information.

Look in Reliability History/Monitor and Event Viewer for error codes, warnings, and even informational events just before or at the time of the mouse failures - or corresponding failures of any sort.

Reliability History/Monitor uses a timeline format that may reveal some pattern.

My thought being that something is astray with regards to the USB port hosting the Logitech mouse dongle. Wireless Bluetooth - correct?

As a side note, small USB dongles of any sort can get quite hot especially if directly plugged into one of the host computer's USB ports. Not enough space for cooling that, over time, degrades the dongle.

Try using a USB extension cable to move the USB dongle up and away from the host computer's case. Cooler air and likely less transmission and reception interference.

Heat is an enemy of electronics and heat may be killing the mouse dongles over time.
