Computer crashing when mouse connected

System Specs: Gigabyte Z68 Z68X-UD3H-B3, i5 2500k, 8GB RipjawsX Ram, MSI GTX970, Various HDD's, Corsair HX1050 PSU

Peripherals: DasKeyboard Model S, Razer Deathadder (The Problem), Sennheiser HD598

 

The problem I'm encountering is that when my mouse is plugged in my computer refuses to start, NO LIGHTS, NO FANS, NO DISPLAY. 

 

However if the mouse is removed, the computer will boot all the way into Windows and is stable. However once booted, if the mouse is plugged in the computer will lose power instantly (Not BSOD) on all USB Ports. 

 

I've tested with another mouse and windows works without issue (same USB port). 

I've also tested the Deathadder with my laptop and it works without issue.

The post of JimboJambo sounds like an idea.

Even if your powersupply can provide 1050W of power, it is possible that the USB-Port can't supply the device with power appropriately.

This happens, because your motherboard only can recive a given amount of power. (which is shared through the other built-in components)

You also can try adding a PCI USB extension card. 

If its not working, then you probably have a windows driver issue.

Boot from a Linux live CD, then plug in the device and see what happens.

If it's not even booting with the mouse in then it's a hardware problem. Windows is not the cause.

 

I would agree that maybe you could use an expansion card that receives it's own power, or a usb hub that's powered.

It's not a race to the bottom.
