thebridgerofdoom Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 My cousin just bought his deathadder yesterday, and he was flashing the fw when it said firmware failed. Then he followed the instructions, (replugging it in). HE then retried the firmware flashing, but to the same result. He didn't bother about anymore, and played some stupid game. The next day (today) it didn't work anymore. When he plugges it in, he got usb device not recognised error, and only the scroll wheel lighted up. THe mouse didn't work anymore. Anybody experienced the same prob? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maj0rgamer Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 (edited) unfortunately this seems to be a faulty mouse... have him/her try another usb port to be sure it's not a particular port being used having a problem and/or try another mouse in the same port(s). also try to see if the deathadder works on another computer. where was it purchased from? may need to return it or call razor and find out about a replacement.

thebridgerofdoom Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 yeah he tried it in all his ports, then he tried it on my computer. He bought it at the PC show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maj0rgamer Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) pc show? was that some sort of event? he may have to call razor for a replacement if it was bought anonymously... maybe they will replace it.

maj0rgamer Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 it's worth a try... call razor and see if they will send a replacement. if he sends the one you posted about they shouldn't have a problem backing their products by sending another... have him tell them the truth and see what happens.

TheConqueror Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 No offence, but he kind of deserved it.. I mean if something is not working, you fix it, dont just ignore it until it eventually breaks. Also I think the rule was that you can only flash on 32bit OSes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
