Spacemouse Pro randomly stopped working

Post by koabzilla »

I'm baffled and can't figure out why all of the sudden my spacemouse has stopped working after nearly a year. I thought perhaps it just died, so I requested a new one, I plug it in and still nothing. So then I think maybe its my USB ports, so I plug my keyboard into the same port as the spacemouse and it works fine. I plug in my mouse in that same port and works fine. I've done all the basic trouble shooting, reinstalled drivers, restarted computer...nothing works. Whats even more puzzling, is when I plug in a different mouse than the mouse I normally use (talking normal mouse now, not spacemouse), THAT mouse wont work either. I know its not broken by any means cause I can plug it into another computer and it works fine. The only thing I can think of and I'm not even sure how to approach it since I've already ensured all the drivers are up to date, is that last night there was a windows update. Perhaps that changed something that I don't know about???

Anyway, totally baffled here, I could use some advice. Thanks in advance!
