  1. Wireless? Try a wired mouse.
  2. Could the OS be looking for another, previously used, input device? Nirsoft's free USBDevview displays a list of all USB devices as stored in the Registry, and current connection status, and enables a device to be disabled, uninstalled, disconnected. You might also use USBDevview to remove the mouse in question, then unplugging it and plugging it back in.
