I have the Copperhead Razer (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826153105) mouse and recently I have had problems with it in game (CounterStrike). When im playing it has started to often disconnect from the USB ports. Not comming unplugged but windows thinks it isn't plugged in. (ie it playes the little connection sound when you plug/unplug a usb device.) So it randomly disconnects and reconnects in about 5 seconds. Which means I can't move around at all, and thats a bit of a problem if you play FPS. I've tried all the USB ports on my PC and they all do that. I have tried using windows drivers, up to doate razer drivers and the driver disc that came with the mouse and i am still having issues. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do? I'm hoping the mouse isn't dead/dying. Any way to check to see if it is my usb ports/drivers instead of the mouse?
Thx in advance

Disconnect all other USB devices that share the same USB hub with the mouse. If that fixes the problem, then install either a powered USB hub, or a USB PCI card for the mouse.

If the mouse is the only USB device connected to the USB hub, then try a different known working mouse. If the problem goes away, then the original mouse is the cause.
If the same problem happens, then the USB hub is the cause(assuming all ports are on one hub).
