I have two identical wired computer meece, mice, mouses, W/E.

Yesterday my laptop made that 'Bing bong' sound that says "You've just unplugged something." and the mouse stopped working.

I checked that I hadn't accidentally pulled the wire out, and I plugged it in and out a few times but it wouldn't work.

Mouse Kaput! I concluded.

I plugged in the other identical mouse and it worked fine for a while, and then, 'Bing bong' same scenario.

Now I'm getting intermittent working / bing bonging from both mice. Sometimes a single bing, sometimes long series rapid bing bongs.

I apologise if this description is too thecnichal, I have tried to dumb it down as much as possible.

I have tried turning my computer off and on again so I am aware that any other suggested solutions will be second best.

Have you tried putting it in a different hole, as the actress said to the bishop.

Have you tried the mice in different USB ports?

Yeah, sounds like a USB-port issue.

If not, then try switching it off and on again...

Yes, as the actress always said to the bishop.

Pretty sure this has been covered plenty of times before on here by the helpful blonde computer people.

Obviously I know the answer myself but I feel it's best said by others:

Sorry if I'm too late, but have you tried turning it off and on?

If none of the above are of any use I'd suggest you get yourself one of these devices. Fixes just about anything.
