Windows 10: Mouse intermittent and hanging up Windows 10

My mouse is intermittent. I point at buttons multiple times and if I grab something it will not let go for a fe seconds. Started yesterday and seems to be getting worse. Renders my system unuseable. Trying to edit photos and it is impossible.

Suggestions?

Logitech wireless keyboard / mouse hangs

Problems

• Intermittent nature
  
• The mouse will often hang (won't move)
  
• The keyboard will often not type
  
• Sometimes, the keys get saved up and come out later all at once, and sometimes they never come out
  
• The mouse seems to have difficulty traveling to the top left of the screen.
  

Equipment

• Dell Precision M3800 Laptop
  
• Windows 10 Professional operating system
  
• Logitech wireless keyboard (K270)
  
• Logitech wireless mouse (M185). They came in the same box / use the same dongle.
  
• "Plugable USB 3.0" docking station that runs the DisplayLink software. It has two monitors attached to it, one by DVI and the other by HDMI. It's plugged into the laptop by USB.
  

Troubleshooting Steps Taken

• Wired keyboard and wired mouse work great.
  
• When wireless was plugged in, it was in a USB port on the laptop itself, not the docking station
  
• I rerouted the monitors to plug directly into the laptop (take this docking station out of the equation). So far the wireless keyboard/mouse are not malfunctioning. This seems to indicate that the docking station is a necessary component to reproduce the problem). But I have to give it 1-2 days to make sure because the problem is intermittent.
  

Question

What would be a good first choice for a fix I can try that won't hurt anything (update a driver...where?)?

 

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.
