Vista puts my mouse/keyboard in a coma???????????

Vista puts my mouse/keyboard in a coma???????????

Both are wireless but there are no special drivers installed = Vista knows
these only as conventional PS/2 wired devices = drivers will not benefit the
situation

Even a Restart isn't enough??? I've have never heard of anything else that
cannot be reinstated via restart - The machine has to be fully shutdown and
restarted

I've stopped it sleeping/hybernating
I've installed latest bios

Yet it still happens


It happens inconsistently (not for weeks then twice in same day - sometimes
just mouse, sometimes just keyboard)? - What is it doing on these occasions
& how do i stop it doing it?

Misery loves company, my Gran used to say.
My PC does the same (HP with Vista Home Premium and wireless mouse/keyboard)
Sometimes it restarts all on its own

My Toshiba Satellite does this too. The Toshiba support guy told me to
turn off the A.C. power, remove the battery, and then wait one minute or
more. Then turn on the power again, A.C. or D.C.. So far, it has worked.
The screen gives a message of normal or safe mode starting, and I let it
start normally. It is frustrating though.
