I am posting this as to see if anyone else has experienced this issue.

When running Windows XP as the vpc sp1, with additions installed, on a
Windows XP host and using a wireless mouse. Tthe mouse will quit working
after an intermittnet amount of time, it is still able to move and even the
hover affects will work, but the clicking will not. It does not work on any
application on the vpc or on vpc 2007 application. The mouse does work on
host machine fine.

I have had the same problem with both a bluetooth and regular wireless
mouse. It does not happen for a wired mouse. This problem does not exist when
use wireless mouse with Vista SP1 Ultimate host.

I have attempted reinstalling, machine fully updates, VPC 2007 w/ additions.

I am using a wired mouse now, so it is not a problem for me, but wuould be
nice if some resolution could be found.

Thanks for any help.

I had exactly the same symptoms and tried the same as you.
Curiosly enough it happened when I was installing Ubuntu in a VM while I was using the XP VM.
What solved was, without restarting my host PC, turned off all VMs, removed the USB receiver, turned off the mouse (I think this is what solved the issue), re-inserted the USB receiver and turned on the mouse. If your mouse does not have a on/off button just remove the batteries.

Hope it helps,

You are replying to a 10-month old thread. Next time, when using Egghead's
webnews-for-dummies forum that uses a gateway to pretend they have forums
and which produces crappy formatted posts in Usenet, check the datestamps.
