I am using a Deathadder Chroma and the mouse cursor can move sometimes but frequently stops working (lighting goes off) and my PC makes a sound similar to when i disconnect a device. I tried getting help from Razer Support but even after cleaning my sensor with a Q-tip and some isopropyl alcohol, reinstalling Synapse, disabling stats tracker(or something), connecting to various USB ports,reducing polling rate, i still hv the same problem. The mouse also stops working when i lift the mouse up. Funny thing is, even without Synapse on my spare laptop,i could use it perfectly fine. 

Sadly, i purchased this mouse (used) from someone else so im not sure if the previous owner dropped it to make it malfunction. And of course i used a mouse pad.

I really have no clue what went wrong, since Razer Support says that since the mouse can work on another device, hardware issues is not the problem, to ' isolate the contributing factor of the issue at hand.'

TIA

1) What year was the mouse made in ?
2) Use the mouse surface program in razer synapse 
3) I'd advice not to buy new mouses from razer, anything that is new from them has issues

unfortunately im not too sure about the year it was made. and i have just enabled the mouse surface program, it does not malfunction for now,luckily.

and what other mice do u suggest that has a comparable price and comfort to the deathadder chroma? Im considering a Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum, or a G402 Hyperion Fury/G403 Wireless.
