Hapatingjaky Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I've been having this issue for 2 weeks. I'm using a Corsair Dark Core RGB SE. Typically I leave it wired and don't use wireless on it. Now I've got my system setup where the Mouse is wired in to the Corsair M1000 mouse pad, to my monitors USB hub and then to my PC. I also have my Corsair K95 RGB Platinum plugged in to it as well and plugged in to my keyboard is my SXFI Theater using the USB pass through. For about 3 years I've had no issue with this setup, up until 2 weeks ago. As soon as I boot in to Windows the mouse would work for 2 seconds and then stop. Mouse is still on as all the RGB is working. Now if I unplug it and use it wirelessly it works, but when I restart or turn the computer on it take forever too boot. If I unplug the wireless from the PC then it boots fast again. The issue also occurs in the bios. The mouse will work for one second and then stop. Keyboard works fine though. And yes I have tried several other mice from other manufacturers that work fine. I've tried to hard reset the mouse but I don't think that is working or I've done it wrong. Also it is running the latest firmware. Anyone got any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapatingjaky Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 I've narrowed it down to the charging cable that comes with the mouse. Installed Icue on an Intel NUC and plugged the mouse in. Icue came up with an error ! and the mouse worked for a spit second. Grabbed another USB cable to try, wouldn't quite fit right but it detected and the mouse worked. Proceeded to follow the steps for forcing the firmware. Once that was done the error went away, but as soon as I tried the OG cable from the Dare Core SE it errored again. Redid the FW once more and just tried the wireless mode on both 2.4GHz and Bluetooth and everything is working great. So new question, how do I go about getting a new cable for the Dark Core RGB SE? I can't find anything on the Corsair store for replacement parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxmisUK Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) You could try looking on Ebay? I found one in a few seconds: Search for the type specified for your mouse which I believe should be USB 2.0 Type-A Cable? - and any quality manufacturer of your choice.
