R.A.T. 7 issue

Go to solution Solved by ViperGTX88,

UPDATE: I uninstalled the driver/software and also any leftovers that it left like the registry, settings, ect. Then I did a fresh DL of the latest driver/software and re-installed them. After that some how the mouse is starting to initialize faster now on start-up. I tried it on another PC before  i did the re-install and it had the problem, maybe i had a 32 bit driver/software installed that's why it took so long.Well thx anyways for all the feedback. I guess ill live with the 10 second initializing time that i have now vs the good 30 plus seconds i had before.

I have a RAT 7 and i love it but, recently the pointer stopped working like it should at start-up. Now every time i boot into OS, i have to wait a few seconds until i can start using the pointer. Does anyone have a RAT mouse with the same issue? It is annoying having to wait a few seconds at start-up to be able to use the pointer. It cant be my OS or PC cuz it does it no matter if i boot to hackintosh or Windows or even bios. If this proceeds i will switch to a Razer Mamba elite 2012.

Did you try a different USB port or maybe a USB 2.0 port? If you have a mouse software the software could be stalling it to assign all the buttons.

Nothing really, the mouse use to work right away at start-up with the same bios settings i am currents using so it cant be any bios settings. I am using USB 2.0 port for the RAT on the IO and the USB 3.0 id disable because, i don't use it at the moment.

I have tried a different USB port with no luck and i don't have any buttons programmed for any games.

UPDATE: I tried the mouse on a different PC and the pointer still takes seconds after a full start-up to work. Looks like i will have to part with this mouse and get my self the Razer Mamba sins the RAT is not under warranty anymore.
