My mouse getting power off while running windows, there by hangs computer

Boggin:
The battery powers the mouse to connect to the USB receiver - it's a bit like you need a wireless adapter fitted in the computer to pick up the SSID broadcast by the router.

When you first got the mouse there will have been a piece of paper sticking out from the battery compartment that you would need to remove before you could use the mouse - that prevents the battery from being in use before sale even though it has an on/off switch on the underside.

As for how often you should change the battery, that can I suppose depend on usage and the quality of the battery, although the battery that comes with the mouse, you could expect that to last for perhaps a year - but it doesn't hurt to change that as a first step to trouble shooting.

I use Duracell batteries for everything I have that needs batteries.

hi, Thanks Boggin.
                        did you download the latest mouse drivers for you. It auto download the drivers , the first update only from window updates. The latest are not supplied to msoft by these companies. I presume.
So, you could safely download the logitech drivers for your mouse in the link i suggested.

Boggin:
I only download drivers if I'm having problems with those I have installed, but as I've said, you can refresh those simply by unplugging/re-plugging the USB receiver so there's no need to download afresh.

Hi, If you refresh by plugging out and in, you get the old drivers only. This is my experience. The driver that was supplied to msoft, and which is being installed on plugging. For recent drivers, you have to go to the vendors site or other third party.
                       I tried . Unplugged and re plugged. The drivers were installed and i went to the properties to note that driver version date is dated back to 25006.
                            I downloaded from the site above, and i checked the version. It is june 2015. This is for your kind information.
                            It is also to be noted that even drivers update programs are not updating mouse drivers.

Hi, When i am thinking of adding solved to this topic title, the problem once again came in the way.
           I was lucky to get back after i plugged it in other usb port. But , the problem is , if this is in a middle of session, like opened tabs, downloading some, scanning some, you get no idea how to close the pc except forced closure. If that is attempted, then it auto chkdsk, and then boot ofcourse, but it is opening all the tabs there by hanging itself without giving you much to think.
             If one is such a situation, can key board be used to access the opened minimized tab at the centre of the status bar, below. Please give idea so that it would immensely help me from this problem.
              How to use tab or any keyboard short cut to fix this error. But everything seemed hanging. Even cont alt del to force open the task manager did not work. Pl
