I am having similar problems on a Dell E510 I bought 2 years ago. I run Windows XP Home Edition SP2. The mouse is the one that came with the system. It carries the Dell label but is manufactured by Logitech. It is a simple ball driven mouse, and is USB attached. I have cleaned the rollers that the ball drives within an inch of their lives, and uninstalled and reinstalled the mouse. There don't appear to be any later drivers on the Dell support web site.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure my issue is chipset / usb driver related, as I have tried many different mice and keyboard combinations. I think Dell just stopped testing for the machines that aren't for sale anymore, and we're left on our own.
I have an Inspiron 1720, Vista Home edition. The USB mouse constantly freezes. Touch Pad works fine. I have lastest BIOS version. I have tried several (4) USB mice (wireless and wired), all act the same. I tried uninstalling USB ports and USB contollers, no change. I have installed all updates from Dell. I am A+ certified but for Win98, this Vista works like chitt. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rosair.
