I James/Chadley

I didn't think that this was the problem as if the mouse is plugged 
directly into the PC it always works with Linux.

However, I did download and use Memtest86 as I was curious and need a 
good memory tester. I particularly like the bootable CD ISO.

I did a test when warm, and also when cold (turned off for 2 hours) and 
both came up clear.
