I had a problem with a cheapo wireless mouse- I found unscrewing it helped [obviously, don't do this if you want to use the warranty!].
Eventually I was so sick of unscrewing it that I bought a new cheapo set.
Check the batteries with some brand new ones, keep trying to connect it may be on a dodgy channel for example.
Other than that I'm not sure what to suggest bar contacting MS's TS.

The batteries are fine and I have run the wireless troubleshooter.
I have also pressed the connect button on the mouse, kb and receiver.
The kb works fine.
I have uninstalled the equipment and reinstalled intellipoint and type.
Completely stumped.
Thansk for any help.

Had someone else with this problem and found that you had to remove batteries from the wirless equipment for a certain ammount of time and then put them back in for the system to pick the wireless equipment back up when you hit the reset button on the receiver. I think it was 10-15 minutes but I'm not sure the exact length of time. |
That never worked for mine.
[on an aside- my batteries keep thinking they're dead but if I run the mouse off the USB charge lead for a while, and then unplug it, they work fine afterwards. These aren't NiCd or NiMH batteries either just bog standard duracells. How strange.]
