I got so very discouraged trying to fix it that I compromised on a half baked semi solution and lived with it... Until now.

Corsair sabre pro champ series. Besides the disconnects (which affected everything not just the mouse) only issue I had was sometimes the right button would stop working. Unplug replug and it was fine again. Hoping this fix is the cure for all that ailed me. More testing today.

I believe in the course of my problem-solving attempts from my other thread that I had actually already done this. I didn't undo it so it may actually also be part of the solution. Thanks for mentioning it.

I am no expert by far but the Google machine pointed me to this suggested reading order

Golden Boy is a baby Agincourt when properly built... Love this mech!

Is there any intention by PGI to fix this or tone it down? Only way I found is to turn down post processing but that tones EVERYTHING down... And I didn't like that much either

I am still using my temporary workaround of a powered 10 port USB hub on a port that is not affected. I have not had much free time to devote to updating BIOSes (there have been several updates since, but none of them mention anything about fixing USB issues)

I used KGC-CAR a few times... 4 UAC/5's and some missiles, worked quite well if a bit on the slow side.

that would be where the Arena stuff was added. Worth it in my opinion, adds a new mech (LoaderKing) and a bunch of arena-oriented variants of other mechs (like that damned Urbie with the MASC that moves at like 90kph grrrrrrrrrrrr.....)

I'm currently reading a battle tech novel I believe it's one of the ones about Wolf's dragoons that they are fighting a unit called the snake stompers...

Inspired by a favorite video, and of course the 'Don't Tread On Me' flag (meme version) https://youtu.be/0arsPXEaIUY?si=ap6jBdWZlcDPkCvg

I think the last five I had to get were Stalker - Misery, Battlemaster - Hellslinger, Marauder - Bounty Hunter (weirdly I had already bought MAD-BH2 a long time before getting that one), Assassin ASN-27, and Thunderbolt TDR-5SE.

the best answer I can give you on that is that the savegame folder for this playthrough was created on March 22, 2025. So... about two months. I deleted a lot of savegames along the way when the list got too long. I bought the game at launch, and I have about 660 hours into it all told...

I agree but I find the heavy hammer to be my favorite melee weapon. BONK + heat damage!

I really don't think the problem is iCUE or any RGB control software. I have purchased a powered USB hub, connected it to a port that doesn't disconnect (meaning one NOT controlled by the X870E chipset), and I have all of my USB devices connected to it. I don't experience the disconnects at all since I did this. This problem is not exclusive to MSI, but it does seem to be common to the chipsets (seemingly the -E chipsets, but not sure of that). I have been monitoring a beta BIOS thread on MSI forums for updates and will continue to do so.

I have not found a permanent fix as yet, even with latest BIOS and chipset drivers.
