No, I did not get any replies. In the meantime I found a "workaround" that seems to work for me.
The D800 has a USB port on the right hand side, which is accessable even when plugged into the dock. I found that if I plug my mouse into this USB port - it works fine. The problem only seems to occur when plugging the mouse into the USB ports on the dock.
The mouse worked fine up until the day that they reimaged my laptop, so I tend to believe that it has something to do with the software, not the hardware. But heck if I know how to fix that.
I have the D/Monitor Stand/port replicator by the way.
I have run into similar problems.fropm dell's site I dowlnoaded the following that seems to have fix the problem.
it is called the dell notebook systems software. if you have the dell utilities cd that came with the laptop you can find it there as well. this problem seems to happen when the machine is imaged and not completely installed with the dell OEM. if you are using an image use your drivers disk and install all of the dell drivers. we were having several problems with our images and this seemed to fix them.
