Backoff: thanks for the long post :) my situation isnt in your post though :)

the mouse works perfectly when connected directly to the usb port of the pc, so the mouse is usb 1.0 compatible and the drivers are ok

the mouse works perfectly when i have removed it from the usb hub and plugged back into the usb hub when the pc has boot up .. so the usb hub is working perfectly

the only problem that occurs is right after booting up .. my mouse doesnt work .. somehow because it doesnt see it through the hub when the mouse isnt plugged in while the pc is running already .. it has something to do with the order of startup .... but i cant find a way to change that
