Windows 7 computer suddenly stops responding to mouse

I m using Windows 7 on an older Gateway machine that originally ran Vista. I've been using it with no significant problems. When I was playing a game (World of Tanks) the mouse cursor popped to the middle of screen and was unresponsive from then on. This mouse was a Logitech wireless. I went through a number of steps, rebooted a few times, started using a known working USB wired mouse plugged into a front panel port, but no response at any time.

In Control Panel and the Device Manager. I brought up the USB mouse item, and all was reported as normal. The Hardware tab even said the device was operating normally. since the keyboard is USB as well and is working fine. I'm out of ideas. Anyone here have any?

Please uninstall the mouse from Device Manager and let it auto detect again.

This may be a problem with your mouse, try an another one. If you think your mouse works fine, then try to switch USB ports with your keyboard. I hope you have no software problems.
