Windows 10: Mouse stops working after plugging in a controller but works fine if i disable the controller.

For some reason my mouse stops working after i plugged in this new Xbox 360 controller i bought. It gives me this error message: "insufficient system resources exist to complete the api". But if i disable my controller in device manager and restart my PC my mouse works fine. Unless for some reason windows can't handle a mouse and countroller at the same time i have no idea what the problem is. Any help is appreciated.

Mouse and controller lagging, beeping and not working

So when you installed the logitech driver it worked better, then a couple of days later back to lagging. In this interval did you plug in your PS3 controller? (Trying to id source of problem.)

I saw you said the driver was installed but is it the same version as when you manually installed it. Windows maintenance is constantly helping (???) and will update you regardless of whether you are having and issue.

Is this wired mouse being plugged into USB 2 or USB 3.0. Might be a stretch but I've seen a lot of members suggesting some slower devices work better in a 2.0 port.

Under mouse and pointers in Device Manager how many devices are listed. I'm think two but your PS3 could make it three.

When your mouse starts acting up is task manager reporting any category over 60% (CPU, Memory, Disk, Network)?

 

Mouse and controller lagging, beeping and not working

Well, for now I have the controller unplugged, but... the same. Also the driver IS installed, I saw it in the program list and my mouse is still acting like after the installation. Still...

Some weird thing is that after the crash I tried another mouse, and... is the same. It doesn't work in the primary USB port, but works in the second port AND the controller doesn't work for my games.

It's like... maybe it's not mouse related, but system related. I feel like there's some flag that, at some random point in the day who knows why, it shuts down, what disables the good USB port and disables the controller for working (it has the light on, the PC recognises it, but buttons won't work).

At least for now I can use the mouse in the "bad port" a lot better than before, thanks to the driver update that you told me, and sometimes it seems 100% reliable, but... sometimes it's not (yesterday both USB ports failed and I HAD to restart in the middle of an online game cause my mouse just was not working xD). That's the main issue, but WHEN THAT HAPPENS, the controller also shutting down... also hurts a bit.

Any idea? (X_X) Thanks for the attention

 

Wireless Mouse stops working when external HDD plugged in to USB3 port

I have a minor but annoying problem and can't find a solution....

My wireless mouse stops working when an external USB3 HDD is plugged in to USB3 port. The mouse is about 3 feet away from the receiver.

My mouse is a Logitech M310.

• I don't have the problem if a USB 2 external HDD is connected to either a USB2 or USB3 port.
• I have moved the mouse receiver to different ports on both the front and back of the computer but this doesn't change anything.
• If I move the mouse very close to the receiver (a couple of inches), it works so it seems that the wireless range is reduced when the USB3 HDD is plugged in.
• If I connect a wired mouse, it works fine.
• I have 2 USB3 ports and the problem is the same on both.
• If the USB3 HDD is connected to a USB2 port, the mouse works normally.
• I changed the battery in the mouse but this didn't help.
• the USB3 HDD is a WD Passport that is self powered through the USB port.

Any suggestions?
