The USB receiver for my wireless one mouse overheating and now unusable

Original title: what's happening with my mouse?

My wireless Microsoft 5000 mouse: the usb piece has overheated to the point, you can actually burn your fingers on it and now it won't work.  It's the second mouse what has happened.  I had the same exact type of mouse before and it did the same thing, I thought it was a fluke and I love that mouse, so I bought another.  Of course, now it overheats too.  It is not my computer because I use other usb mice, and they do not overheat.  Is this simply faulty mouse, because I read of others having the same problem.  I spent $80 for 2 of them last year, can it be replaced?

Hello

1. what operating system do you use?

2 did you change on your computer?

  • try to get the transmitter replacement for my wireless keyboard USB

    I lost the USB transmitter/receiver for my wireless keyboard/mouse set, trying to find where I can get a replacement for him without having to get a new keyboard & mouse just for only a transmitter/receiver.

    Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard wireless 7000
    Transmitter/receiver says "Microsoft 2.4 GHz transceiver v2.0"

    Thank you!

    I talked with Microsoft today and, Yes, the person who answered said that there is NO replacement for the receiver, and I have to buy a new set upwards.  After asking to speak to someone who had technical knowledge and don't get any then I asked a supervisor.  I've been waiting for several minutes, but I wasn't going to give up.  Finally, an answered and after a supervisor explained that I knew something to computing, he offered to send me a brand new unit, for free.  And upward that broad, he said he could only make the order and it would ship me in 1-3 days.

    The number I called is 800-360-7561, option 2.  Make sure you ask to speak to a supervisor, as people who respond do not have any idea.  They read just out of a script.  I hope this helps someone out there.  Microsoft wants to keep their ccustomers elements and will do what it takes to keep them.

    Have a great day.

  • Error "one of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it." when you connect Logitech M225

    Original title:

    My wireless mouse works fine for the last 2 months, now, all of a sudden it doesn't work at all.

    I get a windows notification that says-

    "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it."

    I have Vista 32 bit OS on my laptop.

    My office has Windows 7 32 bit and I am able to use the mouse on this computer, then the M225 is not defective.

    I tried to look for a download of update on the site of Logitech & only found:

    6.32.20 set - point it did nothing to help.

    I also tried to move the receiver to the other 2 ports USB w / still the same results.

    Are there other downloads or solutions that will help w / this problem?

    You can also try searching for devices strangers (with yellow symbols) in the Manager under the mouse devices and other pointing devices and other devices (if any). Right click and uninstall unknown devices. Then restart.

    Also try the steps below to reset the power of USB:
    (a) the laptop off, unplugged from the wall outlet.
    (b) remove the battery for a few minutes, then reinstall it.
    (c) then restart the laptop.

  • "One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it." Why it does not recognize my device?

    Some time ago I had a huge problem with my computer (I think that my mother-in-law accidentally downloaded a virus) and I took it to a repair shop where they wiped out completely and replaced the hard drive.  Since I got it back when I try to use my wireless mouse and plug the nano receiver he said 'one of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it.  Why he says this?  And what can I do about it if anything?  I already tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling, but that did not work because as soon as I plugged it it again once he says the same thing.  So I don't know what is happening or how to fix it.  Please help me!

    Over the last 2 weeks, I get a message on a USB device.  The message said that one of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it.  The location is the root (2 ports) USB hub: 1-unknown device and 2-unused Port.  I have no idea what it means.  I hesitated to first click the icon (it does not last very long) thinking it could be a scam.  Can someone help me?  Thank you.

    Original title: usb malfunction

    His salvation,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    1. What are the troubleshooting steps you have tried so far?
    2. If it works much earlier? If so, did you do changes on the computer before this problem?
    3. What type of USB device you are using?

    As you mentioned that the USB device does not work when plugged into a WinXP machine, it may be a problem with the device itself. In addition, the question may also arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or damaged or if your PC requires an update for problems that could conflict with a device USB and Windows.

    Therefore, I suggest you try the following methods (skip the ones that you already tried) and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Please try the fixit (s) provided below which will help you solve common problems associated with devices and USB ports.

    If method 1 does not work, try Method 2.

    Method 2:

    Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

    1. Open Manager devices by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click system and security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. In the list of the categories of equipment, locate and expand Bus USB controllers.
    3. Right-click every device under the Bus USB controllers node and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    4. Restart the computer and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
    5. Plug in the removable USB device and test to make sure that the problem is solved.

    If the problem persists, go to method 3.

    Method 3:

    This method will install the latest drivers from device to your USB device.

    1. Click the Start button, type Windows Update in the search box, and then click Windows Update in the results pane.
    2. Click find updates. When the scan finished, click optional review updates.
    3. Click the check box next to the update, and then click install updates.
    4. If you are prompted, read the license agreement, then click I agree.
    5. Follow the instructions on the screen to download and install updates.
    6. If you are prompted, restart your computer.

    More information: Update a hardware driver that is not working properly

    If the device fails after updating the driver, you can try to roll back the driver with its previous version.

    Restore a driver with its previous version
