Click Start, in the search type in Reli When it shows, click on "View Reliability History"

When it opens, look at the graph - look at days the mouse stopped working, hopefully there will be something, either a red circle with an X, or something.

Click it if there is, down the bottom of the graph, will be what the event(s) were - to the right should be the wording " View Technical Details" open it and see what it says.

The above of course will only be of any help if it recorded something :D

1117276 2010-07-09 04:55:00 Thanks Wainui, but sadly it didn't record any error(s) :(

@Roger Hunt: Went to MS website and updated the mouse driver, unsure whether it's worked yet (hasn't happened again since the update was installing - about 10min ago).

Be good if that was all it was

I would be very happy if it was, but sadly it isn't. Just happened again. It always seems to happen when the computer has been booted, and then sporadically after that :illogical.

I suppose the solution to this would just be to not turn the computer on :annoyed:

1117280 2010-07-15 02:49:00 OK, thought I'd better do an update:

It hasn't happened for a while now, and hopefully (fingers crossed) it won't happen again. I'm not sure what fixed it, but it was either the empty hard drive or the new mouse driver as I didn't get time to try the link Wainui posted.

Thanks for all your guys help :).
