Peripheral

This is an attempt to get my message noticed as I have zero replies.

There can only be so many problems to the issue.
1) The USB port is not supplying enough power, another
word, the USB port is "wearing out." This explains the
sudden lost in power of the keyboard and mouse, thus
cause the sudden "sound" alerted you that a device has
been unplugged. Even more obvious, you said that the
mouse "freeze" for few seconds, this indicates an obvious
evidence that the mouse was actually unplugged from the
computer (either by completing losing power, or
completing losing connection).
2) The device is malfunction. Your mouse can be dying.
This means your mouse may work for a period of time,
then suddenly stops working, then intermittently works
again.

Random Device Disconnect - Device Connect Sounds

This article was never previously published

SYMPTOMS

You may hear the device disconnect and device connect sounds, just in this order, one right after the other and simultaneously the mouse freezes for a second. Also you may hear the unable to connect device occasionally. Also you can note frequently how mouse freezes briefly while playing games and not always accompanied by previously cited system sounds.

CAUSE

This issue can occur when the device enumerator located at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet gets corrupted. As a result, the mouse attached to the USB controller is duplicated and the system gets confused. Periodical attemtps to remove the dupe are discarded after re-detecting the mouse attached to the controller.

The device enumerator may be corrupted by using third party products. Poorly tested, designed or buggy HIPS (Host Intrusion Prevention System) products pretending to protect critical registry areas can instead block legitimate system acces by misidentifying the originator process, resulting in database corruption after system is forced to create a new instance of the affected device.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem you can try to do a system restore but you have all the tickets to the this not work prize since there are some areas of registry that aren't never restored. You can check them at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore . Your goal is to get the ballon saying 'A new HID device has been detected'. I guess uninstalling the mouse from device manager should work. Not needed here. I only removed all USB devices and connected another distinct manufacturer mouse. After restarting I disconnected the second mouse and attached the problematic one to another USB port located at a different USB root concentrator. When I've seen the balloon I perceived my path to paradise was granted.

MORE INFORMATION

It isn't enough?

APPLIES TO

I don't know. I have had the enhanced experience under Windows XP.

I have same problem - normally occurs while moving the mouse.
