Mouse and keyboard flashing and not working

Revolt · 26 Jan 2012 at 21:39

Basically, for a while now, my mouse has cut out randomly for a few seconds and then come back on accompanied by a sort of windows promt noise. I have a logitech G5 mouse (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a4/Logitech-G5-Mouse-Rust.jpg). It annoyed me but not enough to make me do anything about it, thought it might just fix itself. It did it on any application, games, Mozilla or even Solitaire! Anyway, just a second ago my mouse and keyboard, a cyborg V5 (http://cyborggaming.com/imgs/v5keymain2.png) started flashing their lights and not working. I had to force restart my PC and here I am. Anybody had this issue and/or know a fix? Much appreciated in advance

P.S: My mouse cut out while typing this ¬¬

Is it becoming more 'intermittent' over time?
Have you tried the mouse and keyboard in another PC?
System specs may also help too, just a query but what's the spec + age of your PSU?

Hope it's nothing too serious in the long run.

Yes it is 'intermittent' but has been occuring more often has time progresses on average. I have not tried my keyboard or mouse on another computer, but I have tried another mouse on this computer and the same problems were happening, so I'm pretty sure it's the computer. Specs:

Very nice system, it must be rather annoying.. Have you checked all PSU 'connections' to your motherboard? Is there any chance of trying another PSU in your rig?
