I went cordless last year. However what I did was get a powered usb extension, pluged that into a usb port in the back of my DAW then ran the extension cord up the back of my desk to my desk top and plugged the little mouse usb reciever into that ......the mouse usb reciever is only about 1 to 1.5 foot from the mouse and it is totally out of the way of anything and it works really well.......I am sure you can get one from radio shack for less than 10 bucks.......
 
I think that the position of the reciever is most likely your issue. If you relocate it this may solve the issues.
Just my two cents

Hi,
 
I think it might depend on the mouse ... usually I do not have issues with the Logitech stuff ... but, in my case the wireless mouse I have is from the Microsoft Keyboard/Mouse combo, though I do not use that keyboard, but the mouse works fine and installed itself just fine in W7-Pro 64bit!
 
But yeah ... working on typing and just click here and there is quite different than your DAW runs and you are clicking over it ... could be a problem ... but I really wonder how much of that could possibly be an issue with the video card ... for example ... I had some clickypoos stuff on the XP-Pro machine with that Microsoft Mouse ... and ohhh yeahhhh ???? no issues with the W7 Pro 64 bit ... and it kinda made sense ... this MS mouse came up wayyyyyy after the XP stuff ... that was never good enough with the newer hardware!
 
No issues on W8-Pro machines, but I have not done any music on them ... there were no drivers for the M-Audio card for it so I opted for the W7 machine.

The cord is the only way I can find it after the cat has finished playing.

Well, ok, whatever floats your boat.
 

That's a rat, not a mouse.
 
Stay on topic, would ya?

I don't get it. Where's the mouse?
 

Just a thought, but cordless input devices operate by radio freqs. If something is interfering with that freq, the mouse will... freak!

Those are corded pants.

 I have had numerous problems with corded mice as well. I love my old fashioned corded mousee.
 
 I threw in the towel once and they called the cops.

I have 2 corduroyless mice and I likes em both. No troubles with tribbles here.
 
btw, mine didn't come with a towel.

Apparently so did Douglas Engelbart ... the guy who invented the mouse.
