Well, I just finished my new build and it seems the only issue I have now is that my mouse pointer will freeze intermittently. I cannot go more than 30 seconds without my mouse pointer stopping dead in its tracks for between 3-10 seconds at a time. During this time, my keyboard still functions, applications/games are still running normally, and I am still able to tab around/enter data in various fields without issue. With the help of Process Explorer, I've deduced that my system is infact not hanging, nor is the mouse freezing up as a result of cpu utilization/poling activity.

It's a clean install of Vista Home Premium x64, eVGA Classified 760, latest WHQL drivers off evga.com, and the mouse is a wireless Logitech G7.

- The mouse works fine when used on my laptop (not a connection/battery issue)
- I've tried it with and without Logitech's Setpoint Utility installed.
- I've utilized every USB port with no change in behavior.
- I've tried changing the Vista theme from Aero to Classic to Basic.
- I have not tried a wired mouse as of yet (will later today)

Anyone have any ideas or something else to try?

Thanks for your time!

Hmm...you covered quite a few things. Try removing the Logitech mouse drivers, reboot and see what happens.

Next try an older version or beta of the same drivers.

There's also a utility for Logitech mice called UberOptions. Maybe try that as a last resort, although I doubt it would fix whatever is broken.
