The only thing that I understand about your question is that your mouse is not functioning properly. You do not say if this is a consistent problem, or if it occurs in spasms? Nor do you say what mouse or driver that you are using or how it is connected? The direct answer to your question is that as far as I know, there is no diagnostic tool for the purpose that you want. It is a matter of trial and error.
EDIT: It might help if you would fill out your System Specs (lower left corner of your post, then use the update link in the lower left corner of the specs window). | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number DIY OS W7x64 Pro, SuSe 12.1/** W7 x64 Pro, XP MCE CPU Phenom II 1090T w/Noctua NH-D14 /**4400+ X2 w/CM Hyper TX 3 Motherboard ASRock 890FX Deluxe 4/**A8N-SLI Memory 2 x 2GB Patriot PGS34g1600LLKA/**4x1GB Corsair VS Graphics Card EVGA GTX460 SC/**EVGA 8800GTS Sound Card Asus Xonar D2X/**Xonar D1 Monitor(s) Displays Acer X233H, Dell E152FPc /**LG M237-WD Screen Resolution 1920x1080 & 1024x768/**1980x1080 Keyboard Logitech Media USB/**Saitek Eclipse Mouse Cordless Trackman Wheel/**Ditto PSU CM RS600 w/ APC BX1000G/**Antec 500 TP w/ APC BX1000 Case HAF922/**Antec 1040IIB Cooling 3x200mm, 1x140 and 1x120mm/**5x80mm fans Hard Drives WDC 2TB, 1.5TB, 1TB, 500GB,Seagate 500GB , Maxtor 80GB /**500GB Seagate & WDC 1TB Black Internet Speed 3.3Mbps Other Info SB 560 5.1 w/ Sennheiser RS140/**Creative T20 speakers, Dvico FusionHDTV7 Gold RT, Cisco E3000, HP 5510V AIO, Linksys E3000, Belkin F5U237 hub and **F5D8055 adapter

Thanks for fast reply. I'm sorry I wasn't enough specific. I'll fix it up. My mouse & keyboard is wireless Logitech combo EX 110. Never have problems as such before in win XPro SP3. The unresponsivnes is not constant. Just time to time. That's why I was asking if there is an option to monitor momentary which appy is active/running to eliminate what could possibly couse that behavour. My win is Enterprise x64. Hope that's enough details? TIA | My System Specs | | |

Thanks for reply. Batteries are fresh.....Re Q#2... for long time I skiped install ANY drivers or software provided for ANY wireless mouse/keyboard since I hate obtrusive staff which these "installation CD's" obviously are. I'm always good with any windows legacy "Plug $ Play" drivers. Always works good for me. Is Windows 7 so precious it needs these drivers? | My System Specs | | |

if you want to see whats going on in the background just open taskmanager (CTRL SHIFT ESC) then click Processes, then Show processes from all users, its usually pretty obvious whats what from there | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Self Built OS Windows 7 Ultimate X64 SP1 CPU Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz Motherboard Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz Memory 8GB 1333Mhz DDR3 Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 Sound Card Realtek Monitor(s) Displays Acer Al1980, Screen Resolution 1360*768 Keyboard Alba USB Mouse IT Works Wireless USB PSU 750W Cooler Master Case Cooler Master Haf X Cooling Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Hard Drives 500GB SATA WBC

I haven't checked the keyboard/mouse out, but I shall assume that at least the mouse connects via USB. Be sure that the port to which it is connected is 2.0, not 1.1. I don't know that it will help, but I did read where that Logitech support told one member to disable legacy USB in the BIOS, but when I experimented with that, it didn't seem to make any difference.
I have also found that the placement of the receiver can be very important. Even though the receiver may be well in the published range, moving it just slightly sometimes makes quite a difference. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number DIY OS W7x64 Pro, SuSe 12.1/** W7 x64 Pro, XP MCE CPU Phenom II 1090T w/Noctua NH-D14 /**4400+ X2 w/CM Hyper TX 3 Motherboard ASRock 890FX Deluxe 4/**A8N-SLI Memory 2 x 2GB Patriot PGS34g1600LLKA/**4x1GB Corsair VS Graphics Card EVGA GTX460 SC/**EVGA 8800GTS Sound Card Asus Xonar D2X/**Xonar D1 Monitor(s) Displays Acer X233H, Dell E152FPc /**LG M237-WD Screen Resolution 1920x1080 & 1024x768/**1980x1080 Keyboard Logitech Media USB/**Saitek Eclipse Mouse Cordless Trackman Wheel/**Ditto PSU CM RS600 w/ APC BX1000G/**Antec 500 TP w/ APC BX1000 Case HAF922/**Antec 1040IIB Cooling 3x200mm, 1x140 and 1x120mm/**5x80mm fans Hard Drives WDC 2TB, 1.5TB, 1TB, 500GB,Seagate 500GB , Maxtor 80GB /**500GB Seagate & WDC 1TB Black Internet Speed 3.3Mbps Other Info SB 560 5.1 w/ Sennheiser RS140/**Creative T20 speakers, Dvico FusionHDTV7 Gold RT, Cisco E3000, HP 5510V AIO, Linksys E3000, Belkin F5U237 hub and **F5D8055 adapter
