SYMPTOMS
After periods of inactivity, you may experience a delay in the movement of the pointer when you move the mouse.



CAUSE
Microsoft wireless pointing devices use power-saving technologies that conserve battery power. After periods of inactivity, a Microsoft wireless mouse engages power-saving features that may take a moment to disengage when you first move the mouse.



MORE INFORMATION
Breakthrough power-saving technologies enable a Microsoft wireless pointing device to conserve power and provide months of use.

Note Actual battery life may vary depending on usage patterns.

The Microsoft wireless devices listed in the applies to section use the following intelligent technologies:
 * Intelligent Touch: The mouse knows when you are there and when you are not. Unique sensors recognize the touch of your hand and immediately engage the optical technology. When you remove your hand, the mouse reverts to sleep mode, conserving battery power.
 * Intelligent Illumination: The mouse light shines brightly to illuminate it on a dark surface and dimly on a light-colored surface, permitting the mouse to save battery power.
 * Intelligent Surface Detection: The mouse recognizes when it is lifted off a surface, and then it drops into a low-power mode to save battery power.
