Re: MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 loses connection

About the only thing I can suggest is to go into the Bluetooth Preferences,

click the Advanced button & make sure the box is checked to Allow...to
wake. 
I just got one myself and although I like it & I've not had the connection

problem I have found that there is literally nothing there as far as 
do***entation or driver sup****t of any kind. I have an inquiry posted 
requesting more information & if I get any useful replies I'll post back.
