Recently my mouse has started pausing (the curser will not move) for small periods of time and on several instances the keyboard also stops accepting input and when this happens functionality does not return to either and I just have to hard shutdown which temporarily fixes things.
When just the mouse fails the light remains on indicating no loss of power just no input is accepted for a few seconds. When both the keyboard and mouse fail the lights flicker on and off on both periodically but no functionality. have tried unplugging re-plugging trying different ports to no avail. when doing this an exclamation sound plays indicating it recognises the device and notification comes up for installing drivers but still no functionality. Also oddly my headphones which are usb powered will continue to function throughout. I have tried reinstalling USB port management drivers and drivers for keyboard and mouse (automatic ones and from website). Also for other reasons I was forced to completely wipe my OS drive last night and do a fresh install of everything except bios this problem has persisted however. Any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it?
Mouse and keyboard are roccat 'Kova [+]' and 'isku' respectively OS windows 7
Thanks
