Morning forum,
So I got the Razer Imperator 2012 mouse around mid last year and it worked well till about December. It then started randomly turning itself off and on everynow and then. Some days it would be fine, others it would start doing it every 5 minutes or so (very annoying). So I did the usual things and ruled out all my options:
- Reinstalled windows
- Updated all Drivers
- Updated firmware
- Used it on my laptop and it did the same thing
So its clear its definitely the mouse that has an issue. I took it back to Zaps, where I bought it, and they returned it to their suppliers for 2 weeks and it came back with a piece of paper saying the found no fault and it worked fine for them
I took it back and the issues started again, so I emailed zaps back and all they can offer is the same process again.
The issue is weird though because sometimes it turns the mouse off and it'll then turn my keyboard off and on and then my sound volume will drop for a bit and I'll have to sit unplugging and replugging in my mouse and keyboard till they start working...or just restart my pc.
I did some research on Google and apparently Razer products have often had this issue? Has anyone else experienced something similar with a Razer product that could share some light as to why it is like this or what can be done? I mean is it a hardware configuration problem? Is the mouse itself just a piece of sh*t and it's time to move back to my faithful Logitech brand?
Apologies for the long post
