Hello,
I got the Spawn when it came out quite a while ago.
Although I did like it a lot, it didn't cut it once I switched to being a 'low senser'.
So I put it away.
After hearing the 61 firmware fixes the maximum tracking velocity, I dug the Spawn up again and flashed it with the 61 firmware.
True enough, it really does fix the tracking speed issues.
But, sadly, I have a much bigger problem with my mouse now:
I had it set at 1800DPI, and suddenly it switched down to 800 (I assume; it was a LOT less than 1800 anyway) on its own. (I had disabled the DPI switches, and assigned keystrokes to those buttons)
I re-flashed the mouse and set everything up again, running @ 1800DPI @ 1000Hz.
A few minutes of gaming, and I had the same problem again.
This time, I decided to just live with the lower DPI and adjust the game's mouse sensitivity.
But then something much worse began to occur:
Whenever I did a few very fast swipes in game, the mouse died. it just stops working. You can even hear the typical 'hardware disconnected/hardware connected' sounds that Windows makes when you plug in/unplug a USB device.
A few seconds later, the Spawn 'reboots' and its back to working (albeit at that low DPI) again.
But this happens every time I do some really fast swipes. Its as if the mouse gets overloaded with too much data. Like a 'buffer overflow', which ends up shutting down the mouse.
Has anyone here experienced this phenomena? Is there any way to fix this?
I cannot RMA the mouse. Its too old for that. Plus I've had it opened up to see what it looks like inside, and I've put other mouse skates on it. There's no warranty on this rodent anymore.
Any advice?
