Misc: Resynchronise the HP 2.4 GHz Wireless Optical Mouse FHA3510

Totally off topic but if you’ve had the misfortune to have one of these stop working on you then never fear as the solution is below.

Symptoms:

The USB receiver is inserted and installs fine but one day the mouse appears to give up the ghost and no longer connect.

Cause:

The mouse has become disassociated with the receiver, there are no obvious “sync” buttons on the mouse. As th mouse functions on 2.4 GHz, it may become disrupted by anything else using this frequency band e.g. microwaves, bluetooth, cordless phones etc.

Fix:

Set the mouse close to the inserted USB receiver and hold down the button just behind the wheel – it has a little paper icon on it, as shown in the image below. The blue wheel LED will start to flash – keep holding the button until it has stopped blinking – your mouse is now functional again!
