I have just got a BTC optical mouse
and it won't shut off when i shut down my PC. The lights on the mouse are still on
I have installed all the drivers correctly and seems to work fine all the buttons and
scroll wheel. It is connected to ps2 port
on a Gigabyte GA-6VXE7+ ver F4 if that helps

I have tried and Microsoft optical explorer on this PC and the lights also don't shut off

Much help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance

My optical mouse is the same way... It will stay on until I kill the power to my CPU. I am assuming that this is because I have an ATX PS/MB and it is "always on" so's to speak.

I turn off my CPU and flip the switch on the UPS because we have electrical storms here and the power lines have alot of spikes...

Hi I don't know if this will help but in the bios you can set wake up on certain events, ie some one calling your modem, in my bios I have wake up disabled and I have no problems with the mouse stayingg powered, and yes mine is the ATX type psu.

Best Regards
