I have an MX Revolution that never gave me problems on my old XP rig. I recently upgraded to a new system with Windows 7 and whenever I'm playing games the mouse will intermittently drop connection for 50ms or so entirely randomly. I'll be playing and go to look left, and it'll stop accepting movement or button presses for a second and then continue on. I only notice this issue in games, but am not sure what to do about it. It's gotten to the point where it's really making games unplayable because I can't aim or look anywhere without it acting up.

Has anyone experienced this before or have some suggestions? I'm kind of assuming its driver or software related, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
 
I used to have that exact mouse, and I sometimes got the same problem when my mousepad or the sensor on the mouse was a little dirty. Try cleaning both and maybe a different mousepad for a while.

Not entirely related, but I also used to have a problem with some of my mouse buttons not working in games unless the Logitech software was run in administrator mode. Shouldn't affect your problem, but might be worth a shot.
