SYMPTOMS
When you resume using a laptop computer that has been in a suspended or
power-saving mode, the mouse may not respond.
CAUSE
Many laptop computers save battery power by disabling mouse ports after
the computer has not been used for a specified period of time. If certain
power-saving options are enabled, the mouse ports may remain disabled on
these computers even after you resume using the computer.
RESOLUTION
Disable any power-saving options that affect the mouse. You can often
find these options in Control Panel; they are usually listed under the
computer manufacturer's name.
MORE INFORMATION
Contact your computer manufacturer for further information, or refer to
the section about power management features in the printed documentation
for your computer.
