Hi,
I've got a problem with my Logitech Cordless Desktop (Keyboard + Mouse). When I'm playing a game (Tactical Ops), it often freezes after a while. The keyboard and mouse don't respond anymore to anything I do. When I wait, I hear a Windows XP sound like that when you (un)plug a new device, and it automatically reboots my PC. After it is rebooted it works perfectly normal again. Any suggestions?

Hmmmm, TRICKY!
Perhaps the connection is working its self loose? Maybe the USB support drivers are faulty and need re-installing (on your Mother Board CD)
Maybe even driver conflicts!? Oh and i presume you have the latest Mouse and Keyboard Drivers?
Drivers drivers drivers, nothing but drivers these days!!
Just a thought.
Have fun.

=============================================================
I have had this problem (with a different game). I resolved it by purchasing a 4 port USB hub that would work with or without a power cord connected to it. When I played the game without the power cord connected to the hub the same thing would always happen. When I plugged in the power cord it never happened again. Why? I only have theories but it works now. I hope this helps you out.
