Bluetooth wireless desktop
Okay..here we go. Have a new home built system running the Bluetooth Wireless desktop (mouse and keyboard). After installing, both operate for a time. However, the receiver eventually loses the mouse. I've tried editing my registry (as per Microsoft's suggestions), reinstalling drivers (no help), new batteries (nix), so finally I succumb to just using my USB mouse and the Bluetooth keyboard. The mouse is not detected by the receiver when I try to manually reconnect. Any help would be great guys, thanks

I use the M$ bluetooth mouse with my Mac and get somewhat of a similar situation. The mouse seems to go to sleep after a period of inactivity. This is fixed on my Mac by pressing a mouse button whereupon the mouse wakes up and re-connects. This takes about 1-2 seconds but it does re-connect. Unfortunately it seems your mouse is not waking up on demand, it may be faulty hardware. I would be tempted to return the device for a replacement.

Sorry, guys. Yes it is a Microsoft keyboard and mouse. I've experienced the "snooze" mode you talked about, ninja. The keyboard does that initially. I begin typing and it takes a few seconds to connect and get going. Thanks for the little bit of information. Not sure what to do at this point

Is selling the Bluetooth and buying a regular Logitech MX Duo an option?
