x990479 Posted December 29, 2002 Posted December 29, 2002 just bought ms wireless optical desktop. the mouse's red light is always on, even after turning off the computer... since it runs on not-rechargeable batteries, shouldn't it be off after shut down, to save power?

skop3 Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 okay I have microsoft blue wireless mouse.. but the red light is flashing so crap fast and the mouse doesn't work everytime I have to press connect to move it.. but than it only lasts like 10 seconds. I bought this in future shop. Should I return it?! and get my money back or is there a way to fix this thing Also I got this optical mouse by microsoft, i think it their first one, but the right click doesnt work. BUT THE funny thing is the scroll and the left click work. (A-power)The store where I bought the corded optical mouse from tells me that the warranty that they can give me is only 3 weeks. Which is pretty dumb. Anyways, they told me to contact the microsoft. I've been in there website and shiz, but dont think I can get a refund. any suggestions? where to contact?

Calyco Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 Oh my gosh. I love the MX700. It really does deliver cord quality on a wireless format. Here's a link to logitech to check it out.

soccrstar Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 i'm with calvo, logi MX700 is best wireless mouse yet to date. it uses RF signal not the wack signals that other mouses have. i can use my mx700 ANYWHERE in my room heck even out of my room out on hallway. the signal is strong as hell. and its corded mouse quality. it owns and best of all it has a rechargin' base. wheneva not in use or at nite. just pop it in the base. by mornin' is charged n ready to go. no need to remove batteries and watnot it OWNS. i highly recommend the MX700 i got it n rocks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-shirt Posted January 9, 2003 Posted January 9, 2003 contact tech support, and tell them the problem, sometimes they want it back, but if it's a known problem they usually just sent a replacement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
