Hi, Ive been getting an intermittent problem that is becoming more frequent. When I start up my PC the mouse doesnt load. To get it loaded i have to unplug and plug it back in to the USB port.

Things I've already tried:

All the different USB ports (on the back and front hubs).
Power management of the USB ports being disabled
Driver updates all seem to be in order.
Power Plan USB selective suspend disabled.
Change mouse / Try another mouse - done.

I have an ASUS TUF Gaming B850 motherboard, Corsair Scimitar mouse and w11 OS.

Anyone else come across this or have suggestions on what i could try next.

Do you have access to another PC that you could test it on?

This would narrow the issue down to if its a mouse problem or PC.
 
Have you checked in your power plan, as I had something similar with my USB WiFi adapter. Even though my power plan was on "high performance" the option for USB Selective Suspend was enabled. After disabling that, my USB WiFi adapter would connect when I started up the PC. Up until then, it was as you've described with your mouse. I'd have to unplug and plug it back in. I had tried various USB ports and also checked the power settings via Device Manager on the USB hubs.

Yeap disabled that as well.

Ill add both of those things to the OP but good shout.
 
Hmm! Is the BIOS up-to-date? I wonder if just reinstalling chipset drivers might help over the top. Maybes a BIOS reset?! lol you can tell I'm nearly out of ideas.
 
BIOS reset is very unlikely to do anything, the mouse is so low-level.

If it's working reliably in the BIOS, Windows is the culprit, but I'd not expect this to be the case.

I'd start by looking at the *other* peripherals you've got plugged in.
Remove everything other than the KB / mouse for a few days & see what happens.
USB can be very sensitive to a dicy device or cable plugged in taking the negotiation of the other ports out :)
