Mouse problem - Roccat Kone
Hey there =)
to jump right in:
i got myself a whole new system (win7 x64) with all new peripherals, including a Roccat Kone. Now, after first installing Windows and afterwards the drivers for the mouse as well, it was working flawless (with both kind of drivers - windows+roccat ones).
after i changed the LED colors of the mouse, it failed to move. buttons would work, mouse wheel is fully funtional - only the cursor won't move.
by now, i figured out, that this is due to the surface on which the mouse lies.
on my mousepad (multi-colored) - nothing.
on my desk (wodden, brownish tones) - only very flickery.
on the black-colored ("shiny") user manual - working.
but...
on the black-colored ("not shiny") backside of my mousepad - again nothing.
i did try to calibrate, turned calibration on/off, un- and reinstalled the drivers, tried with only windows standard drivers.. everything possible, really.
i can't really believe that something broke down hardware-like. as i said, i have been using the mouse normally, untill i simply switched the colors (config-wise). the mouse did not fell down, didn't bump into anything or vice versa, no liquids involved or whatsoever....
so.. this might not be totally related to win7, but maybe someone could still shed some light into this.
currently i'm rather desperate, since i only got a spare laptop mouse, which leaves me with approx. 5cm of space to move the mouse around, since its cable is too short.
every help is appreciate and my apologies, if this is too off-topic.
regards
jan.
