Connection of the wireless mouse problem

Hope this is the right forum section.

in any case, I have a Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000 with a v3.0 transmitter/receiver for Bluetooth (usb of course).  Since I have a new laptop a few months ago, I had some problems with the use of this mouse.  It does sometimes not work when I turn on the computer, and sometimes at random, it freezes or disconnects, be it it works all of a sudden without reason.  All I have to do to remedy is cut to the mouse, unplug the receiver, then turn it on and plug it in again.  Sounds easy, but it's extremely irritating.  When I got to the laptop, I tried to install the mouse driver.  I always had a message saying "failed to install software" or something like that.  Once accidentally, I managed to get the combine usb configured as a general bluetooth receiver, who did my computer recognize it rather than the built-in bluetooth.  The mouse "works" with or without the installed driver software and with or without bed in the lit bluetooth receiver. With the random disconnects always, of course.  This mouse works perfectly with my old laptop and windows xp.

News of the computer: Dell Studio, with Windows Vista home premium.  Built in bluetooth adapter (which apparently is a bad thing?).

Anyway, how I have difficulty or prevent this happening?  Is there a way to get the driver to install properly and who's going to fix it? Better yet, is it possible to make my work bluilt bluetooth for this mouse receiver, so I don't have to use the usb receiver?

Any help much appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Android5,

Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forums.

The following link is the site that shows you what all the hardware and software is compatible with Windows Vista: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/

Please do not hesitate to visit this site to see if your mouse is compatible with Windows Vista or not.

Be you please perform a clean boot on your system to see if that helps to solve the problem? Please see the following link for steps on performing a clean boot on your computer: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

After you run the clean boot, please try to uninstall the mouse completely and then reinstall all the drivers to see if you still get the same error message or not.

Thanks for posting to let us know if this information was useful or if you still need help to find a solution to your problem.

  • Connectivity of the wireless router problem

    I have a Cisco's Linksys WRT160N wireless router.  After it is up and running, all my wireless devices work fine.  My sons Wii for my laptop, my wifes iPod Touch. But the strangest thing is happening.  I have problems connecting to the internet with my desktop computer that is hard wired to the linksys router.

    Often I can connect any... other times it's quite slow compared to when I plug my office directly to a cable modem.  Finally, sometimes certain aspects of the Web page will appear while others won't.

    Question: Is damaged?  Or is there something that I am missing.  You would think it would be right forweard enough... OH, I have also replaced the cables from the desktop to the router and have already done all the reboot that I care to do as well as redo the ip address in the part of the repair of my control panel.

    Any ideas?

    Access the Page of configuration of your router and lower the MTU size of the router to Auto/1500 to 1400.

  • using the KDL-46W700 how to connect to the wireless keyboard and wireless mouse

    Hello

    I use KDL-46W700 how to connect to the wireless keyboard and wireless mouse

    Unfortunately, you can not connect a keyboard wirelessly on your TV. Your TV will need a driver for this. Sad thing, it's impossible to install anything on the tv, which includes the driver for the external devices such as a wireless (except USB) keyboard... I recommend the SIDEVIEW TV application that has the remote control / function keyboard and mouse... this app is free and can be downloaded via Google Playstore... ^^.

  • I started having problems with the wireless mouse and the carpet of my laptop - Lenovo ThinkPad T420 mouse.

    Original title: right click on the mouse itself activating

    I borrowed a USB to a person at work and I started having problems with the wireless mouse and the carpet of my laptop - Lenovo ThinkPad T420 mouse. The left click of two devices works normally, however, sometimes she does not respond to clicks and it takes a few seconds to work. The left button was constantly starts to turn on, as if he was stuck. After that I hit Alt + Tab and modify windows it stops for a few moments and starts at a later date. I havo not found a specific condition or a combination of keys that may trigger the fault.

    I read a few posts on discussion forums, but all say that it could be a hardware problem, which I think is not, because both devices have the same problem and I'm sure it all started with the insertion of the borrowed memory stick. I scanned the readers to help Symantec's EndPoint Protection and installed Microsoft Security Essentials and performed a full scan, but found nothing. I even restored the system, but the problem remains.

    Should I get a different antivirus? How can I find the cause so I can find a better targeted solution?

    Try to install the drivers from this link and check.

    Problem of not seeing list drop-down connection to the wireless network when checking connections network - pc windows 7.

    I just installed a Belkin modem-router - which went well. Can I connect WiFi gadgets etc. I can also connect to the internet via a network cable to my pc. I also installed a belkin usb wireless adapter and in Device Manager, says it is enabled and works.

    My problem is, I have no way of choice get a WiFi PC to display in the list (from the notification area) and cannot get the pc to give me options to create a wi - fi connection. The more I get to try to do that is "unexpected error"!

    If someone could help on this - I would be very grateful

    Good news - update of my ongoing saga with this Belkin modem/router.

    Got the pc to see wi - fi now. It turned out to be the Zone Alarm! As the router has a firewall, I uninstalled Zone Alarm completely. Also, I went into the properties of belkin usb and checked it was the most recent drivers, it does not so I installed them.

    So far so good

    Thanks for the help

    Hello

    I put t know what icon on the desktop you want to say but perhaps you intervene on the Wlan icon that appears in the taskbar.

    In any case, to establish a connection to the wireless LAN laptop side switch must be enabled and you must also use the FN + F8 key combination to switch to the WLan.

    Did you check that?

    By the way; If there is a software problem, I recommend to use the System Restore tool and reverse the operating system to the beginning.

    Hello @fairgame,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! The forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your problems, with the help of the community!

    I understand that you have a problem with the WiFi and wanted to help you!

    First of all, try to review the next steps, offered by community member @Great-Christine-Tree:

    First of all, we have a step by step guide to guide you through the process of diagnosis here:

    HP PC - troubleshooting Internet and wireless network

    A second option is to try the following steps:
    Powercycle the network:
    1. turn off your laptop.
    2. unplug the power to your router.
    3. disconnect the power to your modem.
    4. wait at least 45 seconds.
    5 reconnect the modem and wait for it to come back online.
    6 plug in the router and wait for it to come back online.
    7. turn on your laptop and test your connection.

    Turn off the power to the adapter:
    1. open Device Manager. (Win Key + R > type devmgmt.msc > OK)
    2. expand the network adapters.
    3. right click on the Ethernet adapter / wireless, and then click Properties.
    4. click on the power management tab.
    5 remove the check mark next to allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
    6. click on OK.
    7 test cycle.

    Reset the TCP/IP settings on your PC:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" without the quotes and press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    It can also help to reset the winsock catalog:
    1. go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
    2. right-click on the command prompt icon and select run as administrator.
    3. in the window that opens type "netsh winsock reset" without the quotes, and then press ENTER.
    4 restart your PC and test.

    Reinstall the NIC drivers:
    1. download the drivers from here , but do not run them again.
    2. go to your Start menu/screen and type Device Manager.
    3. expand network adapters.
    4. right click on the wireless adapter and choose uninstall.
    5 install the drivers downloaded in step 1.
    6. restart your PC and test.

    Test an ethernet connection:
    Explicit. Test if the problem persists on a wired connection to the adapter hardware troubleshooting wireless can be directed to the appropriate areas.

    Test another connection:
    Many people excluded their home network as a problem if another device working on the same network. Networking is not as simple as that. Each device interacts differently with your router or modem and it is impossible to exclude the settings for this device until the laptop has been tested on another network.

    If these steps do not resolve the problem, try this document published by Microsoft for network management issues: wired and wireless network problems. You can change the operating system with the drop-down list in the upper right of the document.

    Please let me know if this information helps you solve the problem by marking this message as 'accept as Solution', this will help others easily find the information they seek.  In addition, by clicking on the Thumbs up below is a great way to say thank you!

    Have a great day!

    Hi Virginia,

    Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    After the description of the problem, I understand that you can not connect to a wireless network on windows vista computer.

    I appreciate your efforts on this issue, however no need for you to worry we are here to help and guide you in the right direction.

    Help me with the information below.

    -Don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?

    I suggest you to disable temporarily security software and then check if you are able to connect.

    Method 1

    You can also temporarily disable the security software and check if it works.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    If disabling the security software solves the problem, then contact the manufacturer of the specific security software to fix the problem.

    Important: These steps may increase your security risk. These steps may also make the computer or the network more vulnerable to attack from malicious users or malicious software such as viruses. We recommend the process that this article describes to enable programs to operate as they are designed for, or to implement specific program features. Before you make these changes, we recommend that you evaluate the risks that are associated with implementing this process in your particular environment. If you decide to implement this process, take additional measures to protect the system. We recommend that you use this process only if you really need this process.

    Method 2

    Reset the router and see if that helps.

    Note: to help you reset the router, you can consult the manual that came with the router or the router contact manufacturer.

    You can see this help article.

    I n HP 6100 dv6t Select Edition Entertainment Notebook PC running Windows 7 (64 bit) with a card Intel WiFi Link 1000 BGN. After starting the laptop and looking e HP Connection Manager to display the message connected WiFi only immediately disconnected.  This just continues as long as the computer is on.  All work well for at least a year before it started, and to my knowledge has not changed have been made.  I have internet Comcast with TM602G ARRIS cable modem and a Netgear WNR1000 router.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall the network adapter, unpluging power and reset the cable modem and the router and start up the laptop in safe mode with network without success.  Connection to the laptop computer directly to the router works fine.  I also have a second laptop running windows 7 with two IPads some smartphones and my printer HP connected wireless without any problem.  I also tried turning off other devices with no luck.

    Thanks again, already tried to reset the modem, the router and the PC as you suggested and that did not work but I tried closing all other devices connected to the wireless router and the laptop connected properly.  Guess I will just have to turn on devices one at a time to see if one of them is to interfere or just for many connected devices.  It's again the aid.
