    I just moved to Waterloo, a 7-hour drive. My laptop and accessories were well-packed and protected, however when I plugged in my Logitech MX Revolution mouse, Windows Vista didn't detect it. I rebooted and it detected it for a bit but then didn't detect it. Since then, my mouse wasn't detected by Windows. I have Set Point and everything updated, and it used to work before I moved.

    Also, when I plug in my 2 GB San Disk Cruzer U3 USB drive Windows doesn't detect it either and the orange light doesn't come on on the drive. I've tried all USB ports and it's not the ports, as they detect my eHDDs, USB hub, and phone.

    Could the move have damaged my MX Revolution's receiver and USB drive to the point that they don't work anymore? Any way to fix it?
